Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

Page Content Overview
Greensborough P.S. was officially opened in September 2004. The school is located at the corner of Bur Oak Ave. and Alfred Paterson Drive in the town of Markham. The community consists mainly of detached homes and some town homes. The school attendance area is bounded on the south by Sixteenth Ave, on the west by, Highway Forty Eight, on the east by the Ninth Line, and on the north by Major Mackenzie Drive.
Greensborough P.S. is a "Living School", one of 35 schools in the province that are part of a pilot project with O.P.H.E.A. It is a community-driven effort to inspire and support our school to become an environment that promotes active healthy living for children and youth. Members of the school community have come together -students, parents, school staff, recreational organizations, health professionals and businesses - to develop programs and policies that increase access to and opportunities for, active healthy living. These opportunities include the sharing of community facilities and resources, health and physical education, nourishment programs, recreational activities, coordinated community events, and school-run events. Visit www.livingschool.ca for more information.
Greensborough also has a before and after school program owned and operated by the Y.M.C.A. Their staff work closely with teachers, parents and administration to support students attending our school.
