SCHOOL PROFILE
Glenwood Elementary School has been providing quality education to students in our community for over ninety years. It is a smaller school nestled in the south central part of the Langley School District on the corner of 208th Street and 24th Avenue. Presently we provide service to 140 children (grades K-7). Glenwood Elementary School is situated in a rural area where there are many nurseries and farmlands to the south and east, and residential areas in the north and west areas beyond the school. Its location is a significant characteristic in determining the country school atmosphere. We have a large playing field for the intermediate students, a smaller field for the primary students and a wonderful & extensive adventure playground that is shared by the entire school. Our classes (7 divisions) are located in the main building on the site. The original two room school (Heritage Building built in 1916) is not being used for classrooms at this time.
SCHOOL GOAL 2011-2012
To improve students overall writing performance through emphasis on the meaning and
conventions strands.
