greenboard

Teacher's writing surface

Greenboard is a type of drywall with a water-resistant paper facing, typically green in color, used in areas with moderate moisture like bathrooms and kitchens.

It's not fully waterproof—cement board is preferred for direct water exposure like shower surrounds.

Also called green board or moisture-resistant drywall.

Separately, greenboard refers to chalkboards with green rather than black surfaces, once common in classrooms.
