Welcome to Groveland Park Elementary

  • Our school feels like a small learning community, yet with all the opportunities available in a large urban school. Partnerships with local universities and community organizations, such as the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra CONNECT Program, enable us to offer many rich educational experiences.  Learn more...

  • Welcome to Groveland Park Elementary! 

    We are so glad you are here and we would like to you to invite you to our virtual tours and open house happening in January and February. Current parents, teachers and Principal Lightner will give an overview of the great things Groveland has to offer and share what it means to be a part of our learning community.  You can sign up here.  

    Our staff made introductory videos in the fall to welcome students back to Groveland. They are fun way to get to know staff. 

    Please contact Ms. Lightner at sarah.lightner@spps.org if you have any questions.

    We look forward to meeting you!

Minnesota art standards are incorporated into the experiences. Each of the art experiences have been made possible through the genrousity of the Groveland community.
