Glenville's first school was organized during 1871-72 and, like other rural schools, was housed in a wood frame building. It was demolished by a tornado and rebuilt in 1882. The Glenville School, the first substantial school in the village, operated from 1903 to 1995 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
