About Us

At KRS we believe in “nothing less than our best!”

Kensington Road Elementary School is one of three neighborhood elementary schools within the Glens Falls City School District. Each neighborhood UPK-4 building provides a safe, caring, and educationally stimulating environment which encourages lifelong learning. Our highly qualified faculty and staff members strive to meet the many needs of our children.

Our district-wide curriculum map mirrors the New York State Learning Standards. Remedial reading teachers, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, social workers, school psychologists and special education teachers provide added support, so all students can achieve.

The curriculum blueprint also incorporates instruction in music, physical education, computers and art. Chorus, band, and orchestra are offered in fourth grade. Third- and fourth-grade students also participate in our enrichment program.

The district takes pride in its character education program which is integrated into daily activities. Parent involvement is strongly encouraged and helps ensure student success.

Good character is also stressed at KRS. Monthly themes emphasize the importance of good character and stress the value in learning to care for ourselves and others.

The staff at KRS is composed of dedicated, caring professionals who believe in placing the needs of our students first. Parent involvement, effective instructional practices, differentiated instruction, engaging learning strategies and positive interactions ensure all students a healthy learning experience on a daily basis.
