Greenville ISD, which encompasses the city of Greenville, Texas and a surrounding five to seven-mile radius, is a school district that has something to offer just about everyone.
Large enough to offer progressive programs yet small enough to allow teachers the chance to cultivate a personal, active interest in each student, Greenville ISD encourages students to seek enrichment but reaches out to those with unique learning needs.
Greenville ISD, in keeping with its mission statement, aims to "provide exemplary education to a diverse group of students through leadership, excellence in teaching and student participation with the support and involvement of the home and community." To that end, a comprehensive instruction program is offered to meet the needs of all students.
Teaching the basics is at the core of Greenville ISD's program. But students can take advantage of numerous educational offerings including extracurricular activities. The regular education program is supplemented by programs which cater to those with individual needs, including special education, deaf education and speech therapy.
The district enrolls approximately 5,100 students annually and includes five elementary campuses. Bowie, Carver, Crockett, Lamar and Travis Elementaries house kindergarten through fifth grade, while a Sixth Grade Center houses sixth grade. The district also includes a Middle for seventh and eighth grades and a traditional High School for grades nine through twelve. Also available is the Houston Education Center, an alternative learning center for high school students who have been identified as having personal, academic, economic or attitudinal needs and the L.P. Waters Childhood which houses the district's three and four year-old students.
