Students from Green Elementary Academic and Athletic School performed at a recent San Diego Unified Board meeting.

Physical Education teacher Dee Dee Patterson collaborated with Kristy Aragon, music teacher, to choreograph a spectacular display of synchronized dance to the song “Wavin Flag” from the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The  students  also performed this at their annual Junior Olympics as part of the Opening Ceremonies.

Physical education at Green includes dance along with gymnastics, track and field, and continuous athletic fitness on their field and in their on-site Fitness Lab. Green also offers a running club that is active before and during school hours.

Academics are also a high priority at Green Elementary and currently boast one of the top API scores in the district.

Prospective parents can tour Green Elementary on Fridays.
