About our Schools
The Greater Johnstown School District is a public school accredited by the NYS Education Department, serving approximately 1,600 students in universal pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. The dedicated staff strives to provide each child with a quality education and to foster in them the ability to be critical and creative thinkers, problem-solvers, responsible citizens and life-long learners.
The Greater Johnstown School District will provide the essential educational resources that support a fully engaged culture of continuous improvement and diverse, high-quality academic opportunities that equip students with the knowledge, skills and abilities they need to be contributing citizens in a stronger society.
The Greater Johnstown School District Mission Statement
The school district consists of five buildings:
- Pleasant Avenue Elementary (Pre-K, Kindergarten and 1st grade)
- Warren Street Elementary (2nd, 3rd and 4th grades)
- Knox Middle School (5th, 6th and 7th grades)
- Johnstown High School (8th through 12th grades)
- Glebe Street School, which hosts the HFM BOCES Regional PTECH (Pathways in Technology Early College High School).
All of our buildings are carefully maintained, with well-equipped media centers and computer labs. The Knox complex boasts the venerable Knox Field, an interscholastic stadium featuring lights and a field turf surface, suitable for a wide variety of athletic events. Johnstown Senior High School hosts the district’s indoor pool, lighted tennis courts and the Johnstown Performing Arts Center, a stunning, modern, state-of-the-art auditorium for musical and theatrical events.
Capital Project Improvements
Just like a home, school facilities need regular attention and upkeep to continue to operate year after year as originally intended. Capital Improvement Projects are a strategic way for school districts to complete a larger amount of facilities work sooner than otherwise possible within the scope of the annual school budget.
Learn about what we’re doing to improve the experiences for our students, staff and visitors on the Capital Improvement Projects page.
