Gwin Elementary School

Gwin Elementary School We are a K-5 elementary school in Hoover, Alabama. Harriette W. It had sixteen classrooms for grades one through seven.

Gwin Elementary School, named for a Jefferson County Board of Education member, opened in January 1976. In 1992, an addition doubled the size of the school and in 2000 the front of the building was remodeled. We currently have an approximate enrollment of 600 students. In addition to offering state and district curriculum, we encourage students to explore their interest through clubs and organizat

ions. These clubs offer hands on experiences for all students including Gwin Ovations Choir, Garden Club, Dance Club, and opportunities to explore other cultures.

2nd Grade Worry Stones 🫶

Last week, 2nd graders were read the story "Alma & the Worry Stone" which gave them the opportunity to talk about how to manage the big feelings they might be having at the beginning of a new school year. After reading, they made their own worry stone to remind them to focus on the good and to help them calm any worries they might have! 🩵
