Welcome to Green Run Elementary School's World Wide website. We are one of 56 elementary schools in the Virginia Beach City Public Schools District in the resort city of Virginia Beach, Virginia. Virginia Beach is located in southeastern Virginia on the Atlantic Ocean, approximately 18 miles east of the city of Norfolk.

When the Green Run community was designed, an elementary school was planned on a 14 acre site at the center of the Green Run community, a unique circular design. The community grew very rapidly before the school could be built, therefore a student body was organized before the building was completed. The school became operational July 1, 1975, when a principal and secretary set up an office in a conference room at nearby Holland Elementary School. Students were housed at Brookwood, Plaza, Holland, and Windsor Oaks Elementary Schools until the new building was completed.

Finally, in February, 1976, Green Run Elementary School opened its doors. The school is well designed and is an excellent facility housing an outstanding educational program. The school is fully accredited by the state of Virginia and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

As home of the "Green Run Gremlins", our school has a population of approximately 475 students served by a staff of 84 dedicated individuals. Green Run Elementary is a K-5 school with 24 regular education classrooms, a half-day kindergarten program, five Cross Categorical Self-Contained classes, a Title I program and two Early Childhood Special Education classes.
