Posted August 15, 2010

When we moved to Paragould we were pleased that our son was to start at Green Co Tech. We had heard so many good things about it and it was all true. It was an excellent experience for both our son and us as parents. The teachers are very hands on and personable. Willing to take the time to discuss any concerns the parent may have. All leadership in the school was strong and I cannot say enough good about the principal's and staff that our son had during his time with the whole Tech school system. Our son excelled in academics while learning at Green Co Tech, not only on his determination alone but due to the encouragement he received from all his educators.
