Gloverville Elementary School is helping all students develop World Class Skills of the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate by cultivating future-ready students to serve our evolving community and world through an innovative, literacy-focused school system. It is our purpose to prepare our students with World Class Skills by focusing on critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity. Our school is continuing to focus on a high level of rigor, relevance, and relationships. Classroom curriculum focuses on research, effective use of technology, and real-life problem solving. In order to address the diverse academic needs of our students we offer: Read 180 & System 44 for students in grades 3-5, Reflex Math, Dreambox, IXL, ONCE in grades 5K and 1st, ESOL support, and GT instruction.
Gloverville’s open door policy promotes family and community involvement. Our active PTO provides numerous opportunities for all parents to participate in a variety of school activities. We continued our Watch DOG program, a national program that encourages dads as well as other important male role models in the students' lives, to spend the day volunteering in classrooms, hallways, cafeteria, and on the playground. Midland Valley High School students volunteered at our school several times. They read to our classrooms in celebration of Read Across America Week, they read and provided hot chocolate for our students at Christmas and they helped during our field day and color run in the Spring.
Backpack Blessings, a program completely funded and supported through local business partners and the Golden Harvest Food Bank donations, provides children with nutritious, child-friendly food when other resources, such as school lunches and after-school meals or snacks, are not available. Backpacks are discreetly distributed to participating children on Fridays to help provide the proper nutrition necessary for overall growth, physical and cognitive development and satisfactory performance in school.
Gloverville students and staff give back to our community by participating in service projects such as donating food and clothing, collecting socks for local shelters, toiletry drives for homeless Veterans, collecting food for the local animal shelters, reading to the animals, raising money for the Valley Empty Stocking Fund, Jump Rope for Heart, as well as fundraising for various organizations. The Jr. Beta club continued in 2024-2025, and created several service projects throughout the year.
