Summary

Griggs Road Elementary is a PK-5 school in Clover, SC, serving 510 students within the highly-ranked York 02 district, which holds a 5-star rating and ranks #2 out of 75 districts statewide.

One of the most impressive things about Griggs Road is how consistently students show up ready to learn. Only 7.8% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, compared to 14.4% for the district and 22.3% statewide. This is a huge advantage over nearby schools like Bethany Elementary (18.5%) and Larne Elementary (15.2%), and it suggests families are highly engaged. Academically, the school shines in 4th grade math and science. In 2025-2026, 74.4% of 4th graders were proficient in both subjects, beating the state average by more than 20 percentage points in math. This isn't a fluke—the school has outperformed the district by 10-14 points in 4th grade math for three straight years. The school also runs efficiently, spending $15,075 per student, which is less than several peers that rank lower, including Bethel Elementary ($19,415) and Kinard Elementary.

There are a couple of things worth noting. While 3rd and 4th grade scores are strong, 5th grade performance dips a bit—for example, 5th grade ELA proficiency was 71.2% versus 86.8% in 4th grade. This may be cohort-specific, but it's something to watch. Also, the school's Gifted and Talented program ranked in the 25th percentile statewide in 2025-2026, which is a clear outlier compared to the school's overall performance. On the positive side, the school has shown steady improvement in serving students from low-income backgrounds, moving from the 78th to the 85th percentile over two years. Overall, Griggs Road is a stable, high-performing choice in the Clover area, with particularly strong attendance and early-elementary academics.
