Guiding all students to learn, grow and excel
In Lexington County School District One, it is our goal to prepare graduates who are accomplished in 21st century skills and serve as a learning center for the entire community. We seek continuous improvement in overall achievement, such as achievement gaps, acceleration, and the effects of poverty, to accomplish this mission.

Every child deserves a chance to shine. At Gilbert Elementary, we envision a unified community where every student belongs and feels empowered to reach their full potential. Our dedicated teachers are passionate about guiding each student to become a self-directed, confident learner, equipped with the academic and social-emotional skills needed to succeed.
We believe in fostering a positive learning environment built on shared values. Our SCOUT expectations guide our students' behavior and interactions:
-
Safe: We create a safe space for learning, both physically and emotionally.
-
Caring: We treat each other with kindness and respect.
-
On-task: We are focused and engaged in our learning activities.
-
United: We work together as a team and support one another.
-
Trustworthy: We are honest and reliable.
By embracing these expectations, we empower each student to thrive and contribute to our thriving school community.
