The school's 5th-grade ELA and Math proficiency rates are particularly strong, exceeding the state averages by a significant margin.

Glenns Valley Elementary has experienced fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 9.1% to 24.8% over the past few years, which are generally higher than the state average. The school also has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 67.23% to 70.43% over the past few years, compared to the Center Grove Community School Corporation schools, which have lower rates of economically disadvantaged students. These factors may contribute to the school's academic performance and could be areas of focus for improvement.
