The McLean County Unit School District 5 runs Benjamin Elementary School in Bloomington, Illinois. It serves students in grades K through 5. The school is known for having a supportive learning environment and for focussing on both academic growth and getting involved in the community. Illinois state education data shows that about 56% of students at Benjamin Elementary are good at maths. This is higher than at many nearby schools and higher than the state average making it one of the best elementary schools in Illinois. There is about one teacher for every 18 students, which allows for individualised attention while still allowing for a variety of interactions in the classroom.
Benjamin Elementary students who want to improve their problem-solving skills and learn more about STEM could benefit from Moonpreneur's math and robotics programs. These programs give students real-world maths and coding experiences that help them become more confident in their technical and analytical thinking. They also encourage creativity through robotics projects.
Normal Community High School, one of the most well-known high schools in the area, is where most of the students from Benjamin Elementary go to high school. Notable alumni from this school include Adam Kinzinger, who used to be a U.S. Congressman; Tom Ashbrook, a respected journalist; and Ryan Martinie, the bassist for the band Mudvayne. Such success stories show that the local education system helps nurture talent across academics, media, and the arts.
