Mission: Empowering a community of learners and leaders.
It’s hard to imagine a more special place to begin or continue your child’s educational journey. Nestled in the heart of Oconomowoc, within walking distance of Fowler Lake and Lac La Belle, Greenland has been a cornerstone of this community for over 60 years. On any given day, you’ll find families gathering on our playground and green spaces—reminding us that Greenland is more than a school; it’s a neighborhood.
We are proud to serve approximately 260 outstanding students in 4K through 4th grade, alongside 50 dedicated and caring staff members, and an incredibly involved parent community. Our students thrive because of the collective work of our teachers, families, and volunteers. Whether you’re helping in the classroom, chaperoning field trips, or attending PTO events, your partnership strengthens the heart of this school.
Speaking of our PTO—thank you! Your generosity helped us update the screen for concerts and assemblies and install beautiful new Greenland signage in front of the building. Events like Movie Night, the School Dance, Book Fairs, and Staff/Student Celebrations continue to enrich our school community, thanks to your leadership. The PTO has generously assisted Greenland in purchasing new playground equipment, updating our audio-visual system in the gym, and a new fridge for the teachers' lounge.
We are proud of our recent achievements and continued growth:
- Silver Recognition in reading, math, and behavior from the Wisconsin RtI Center (2022–23), Wisconsin Title 1 School of Recognition for implementing a multi-level system of support, Herb Kohl Vanguard Award for fostering high-quality learning opportunities
Our team is deeply committed to ongoing improvement and strong support for every child. We also continue to implement PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) to develop students’ social and emotional skills through proactive, supportive approaches.
This year, we are embracing the theme “Be the I in Kind.”
We are looking forward to a joyful, safe, and inspiring year filled with growth, kindness, and learning. Please feel free to call, email, or visit the office at your convenience. Our doors are always open, and your voice is always welcome.
Here’s to another year of watching our Greenland Stars shine bright, because of what we do, all kids grow.
Warmly,
Mrs. Shannon McCaffery
Principal, Greenland Elementary
