Where to check Greenwich school calendar PDFs, holidays and live events

The official Open GPS Calendar page is the correct place to check BOE-approved school calendar PDFs and live district events. It currently lists the 2025-26 School Calendar, approved September 26, 2024 and revised March 19, 2026, plus the 2026-27 School Calendar, approved September 25, 2025.

The same page also includes a live interactive calendar with month, week, and day views, calendar filters, RSS feeds, and alerts. This is useful when families need to check Board of Education events, early release days, school closures, graduation, and district-wide activities.

Families should not plan only from search snippets or old screenshots. Greenwich calendars can be revised, and school-specific events may differ from district-wide dates. For your child’s exact school activities, also check the individual school calendar after reviewing the district calendar.

Greenwich Public Schools central office address, phone number and hours

The official Open Contact Us Page lists the district central office at Havemeyer Building, 290 Greenwich Avenue, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830. The listed phone number is 203-625-7400.

The same page lists district office hours as 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday. If you need an individual school office, use School Info/Directions because school phone numbers, principals, and school hours are listed separately.

For general website comments, the district lists gps_webmaster@greenwich.k12.ct.us. For student-specific matters, families should usually contact the child’s school first instead of sending a general district email.

How to find Greenwich BOE meeting dates, agendas, minutes and videos

The official Open Board of Education Page is the best starting point for Greenwich BOE meeting information. It links to virtual meeting access, BoardDocs meeting agendas and documents, BOE meetings and minutes, meeting videos, and regularly scheduled Board of Education meeting calendars.

The page currently shows approved meeting calendars for 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. It also shows the next scheduled meeting when available. Because meeting dates, locations, and access instructions can change, the official BOE page and linked BoardDocs materials should be checked before attending or sharing details.

The official Public Meetings page explains that regular, special, and emergency Board of Education meetings are public meetings except for executive sessions. It also says regularly scheduled BOE meetings are posted annually and meeting information is posted with the Town Clerk and on the BoardDocs eGovernance website.

Greenwich BOE members, chair, terms and public contact

The official BOE page states that the Greenwich Board of Education consists of eight elected members serving four-year terms, with four members elected every two years. The official Open Board Members Page lists current members and their committee assignments.

The members page currently lists Dr. Michael-Joseph Mercanti-Anthony as Chair. Since board roles can change after elections, reorganizations, or term changes, use the official members page before naming a board member in a post, public comment, or civic request.

The official page also says the public BOE email address is BoardofEdMembers@greenwich.k12.ct.us. Emails sent to the Board are considered public correspondence and are subject to Freedom of Information Act requirements.

Greenwich Public Schools list, grade levels and attendance areas

The official Open Schools Page says Greenwich Public Schools consists of 11 neighborhood elementary schools for grades K-5, three middle schools for grades 6-8, and one high school for grades 9-12 with an offsite alternative high school program.

Students are assigned to elementary and middle schools based on residential attendance areas. The official schools page also lists all district schools, including Greenwich High School, Central Middle School, Eastern Middle School, Western Middle School, Cos Cob School, Glenville School, Hamilton Avenue School, International School at Dundee, Julian Curtiss School, New Lebanon School, North Mianus School, North Street School, Old Greenwich School, Parkway School, and Riverside School.

If you are moving into town or are unsure which school serves an address, use the official School Finder before registration. This prevents the common mistake of contacting the wrong school based only on nearby distance.

How to register a child in Greenwich Public Schools and confirm the right school

The official Open Registration Page says registration for SY26-27 is open. Families may register through the online registration system or by bringing the completed GPS registration package and supporting documents to the school.

The registration page lists supporting documents including the child’s birth certificate, immunization record, and two forms of proof of residency. It also tells families to call the school to make an appointment before bringing the registration package in.

If you are unsure which neighborhood school your child should attend, use the official Open School Finder. The School Finder page is a comprehensive list of Greenwich, CT street addresses and associated attendance area assignments.

Magnet schools, program choice and neighborhood assignment rules

The official schools page says four elementary schools and one middle school also serve as magnet schools: Hamilton Avenue School, International School at Dundee, Julian Curtiss School, New Lebanon School, and Western Middle School.

The official Open Magnet Schools Page explains that each GPS magnet school is also a neighborhood school, and a limited number of magnet seats are available by application for students living outside the attendance area.

This is important because “magnet school” does not mean every student can automatically attend any school. Families should check current application deadlines, lottery steps, and attendance-area rules on the official page.

Greenwich bus routes, walking distance rules and transportation contacts

The official Open Transportation/Busing Page says free transportation is provided to and from school for students living beyond established walking distances within their attendance area. The listed distances are one mile for elementary school, one and one-half miles for middle school, and two miles for high school.

The page also says all routes are subject to change and students should be at the bus stop at least five minutes before the listed time. For questions or concerns, families can submit the official online form or contact the Transportation Office at 203-625-7443. For lost items, the listed phone is 203-625-7413, Monday-Friday, 6 a.m.-6 p.m.

Greenwich school meals, menus, payment procedures and food support

The official Open Food Services Page says Greenwich Food Services provides appealing and nutritious foods intended to help students reach their maximum learning potential through healthy food choices.

Families can also use official district links for meal prices, menus, payment procedures, refunds, free and reduced-price meals, food allergy information, and food insecurity resources. Because meal pricing, menus, and payment details can change, use the official food services pages rather than relying on an old school newsletter.

Parent portals, Aspen, Schoology, ParentLink and family resources

The official Open Parent Portals Page lists parent-facing systems including Aspen for student information, Schoology for learning management, SCOIR for student success plans and college/career planning, and ParentLink for district and school communication.

The official Parent Resources page also provides family-facing information intended to keep parents informed and engaged in their child’s learning experience. Use these pages when you need academic records, course information, communication systems, or family resources.

Special education, IEPs, referrals and parent support resources

The official Open Special Education & Student Supports Page says Greenwich Public Schools provides specialized instruction to eligible students ages 3-22 under IDEA through a continuum of district services and supports.

The page includes resources for referral and identification, PPTs, IEPs, related services, Section 504, homebound instruction, parent resources, private school students, and the Special Education Advisory Council. It also explains that referrals may be made by a parent, adult student, school personnel, or certain outside professionals with permission.

For a child’s individual situation, families should start with the school team and then use the district-level special education resources when they need process guidance, parent resources, or escalation support.

Public meetings, FOIA notices and Board correspondence rules

The official Open Public Meetings Page says the Greenwich Board of Education and Greenwich Public Schools are committed to the principles and requirements of the Freedom of Information Act. It explains that BOE regular, special, and emergency meetings are open to the public except for executive sessions.

The official Board Members page also says emails sent to the Board, whether as a group or individually, are considered public correspondence and may be shared with the Superintendent, administrators, and others under FOIA requirements.

This matters for parents and residents: a message to the BOE is different from a private communication with a teacher or school support team. Do not include unnecessary private student or family information in a public BOE email unless you understand the disclosure risk.

What Greenwich school information is free and what may involve fees

Most basic Greenwich Public Schools information should be free to check. Families should not pay third-party sites to access the official school calendar, Board meeting page, school finder, school directory, registration guidance, transportation page, parent portal links, food services information, or special education resources.

Some official programs may involve fees. The official Open Tuition and Fees Page explains that GPS offers certain fee-based PK-12 educational opportunities and posts tuition rate schedules. Food services may also include meal pricing and payment procedures. Always verify the official district source before paying.

Check the state before using any Greenwich school calendar or BOE page

The phrase “Greenwich Board of Education” can lead to confusing results because other places use the Greenwich name. This article covers Greenwich Public Schools in Greenwich, Connecticut, with the official district website at greenwichschools.org.

Before using any office address, school calendar, board meeting schedule, school finder, or contact information, confirm that the result belongs to Greenwich Public Schools in Connecticut and not another Greenwich-related district or municipality.
