Charles B. Glenn K-8 School is a school in the Birmingham City Schools system located at 901 16th Street West in the Bush Hills neighborhood of Ensley.

The original school was constructed in 1952 as the Charles B. Glenn Vocational High School. It was named for Charles Glenn, superintendent of Birmingham schools from 1921 to 1942. It served as a middle school before being rebuilt as a K-8 in 2010, taking in students from Wilson Elementary School. The new building was designed by Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood architects.

Construction of the new $16 million school building was delayed when McCrory Building Company defaulted on its contract. The Blalock Building Company was selected to complete the work.
