Loving, caring, and supportive school, just amazing!!! I love it!! I wish they would use this school as a pattern for all schools to learn by. You reach a small child by love, and they offer that here. Parents are welcomed and encoraged to be at school and participate, not in just things that benifit the school but by ways of benifiting the child. This schools stands taller in my eyes than any school in aiken county. They go far and beyond the call of education. Which will carry with a child all their life. Thank you Gloverville!!!

Gloverville is a wonderful school where parents are welcome to visit and/or volunteer. I will hate to see my children move on to middle school. The students are outstanding.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 South Carolina used the Palmetto Assessment of State Standards (PASS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in writing, English/Language Arts, Math, Social Studies and Science. The PASS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of South Carolina. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
