10 Reasons Why Groveton Shines Bright

Groveton is a vibrant and thriving community of eager learners from diverse backgrounds. Our students bring unique perspectives that enrich our academic environment. We are committed to fostering a culture of collaboration among our teachers and students, ensuring everyone benefits from the collective wisdom and creativity of our community.

Empowering a Diverse Community

Groveton Elementary School serves the instructional needs of a culturally diverse community.  It enjoys a rich history in which teachers and support staff are dedicated to maintaining a challenging learning environment for all students. Groveton offers advanced academic local level IV programming in both English and Spanish in grades 3-6.

Daily, Nutritious Meals for All

Thanks to a Community Eligibility Provision, all students at Groveton receive a nutritious meal for breakfast and lunch each day at no charge. 

Building Foundations for Young Learners

Groveton’s preschool program has two classes that allow students in the community to develop pre-academic and social skills before entering kindergarten.  

Experience Dual-Language Learning

A Spanish Immersion Program is available for students to spend half their day in classes speaking English, and half the day in Spanish.

Supporting AAP Families Together

The Groveton parent community has developed an AAP Parent Support Group to address the specific needs of students and families as they navigate the advanced academic programs.

Empowering Parents through Education

Groveton offers 16 sessions of Parent Academy each year focusing on a wide range of topics including: technology, wellness, academics, and community resources

Nurturing the Whole Child

At Groveton, we believe that the social curriculum is as important as the academic curriculum. Using the Responsive Classroom approach, students begin the day with a Morning Meeting which is a time for students to connect with each other, share, have fun, and prepare for the academic tasks of the day.

Groveton Elementary is more than a school—it's a community where young minds are nurtured, and spirits are uplifted. Together, we learn, grow, and make an impact.
