Green Local Schools is a school district serving Green, Ohio. The superintendent is Jeffrey L. Miller II.
The district completed facility upgrades with the opening of two new schools in the fall of 2025. [2] A newly constructed Green Middle School now houses grades 6 through 8, replacing the prior middle school and Green Intermediate School, which was built in 1956 and served as the district's high school until the current building was completed in 1996. [3] A new Green Elementary School, which serves students in grades 2 through 5, was built on the site of the former Greenwood Early Learning Center. Green Primary School was renovated and now serves students preschool to grade 1.
Kleckner Elementary School, which housed grades 3 and 4, was closed at the end of the 2011 school year due to financial constraints. [4] The original part of the building was constructed in 1903. [4]

In September 2019, staff at Green Primary School disposed of a 9-year-old student's hot lunch and replaced it with a cheese sandwich and milk due to his negative lunch money balance. This, coupled with the fact that it was the student's birthday, led to widespread media scrutiny. Green Local Schools addressed the allegations later that week and reformed its lunch policy after receiving nation-wide criticism. [11]
