About Cedar Ridge Elementary School

Cedar Ridge Elementary School is in Bloomington, Illinois, and is part of the McLean County Unit District 5. It has students in grades K through 5. The school has a student-teacher ratio of about 11:1, which means that teachers can give each student their full attention and encourage them to get involved.

About 5% of them meet or exceed expectations in maths. This is much lower than the average for the state and the district. This shows that more academic help and enrichment programs are needed. Moonpreneur's maths and robotics classes could help kids get better at STEM and problem-solving by giving them hands-on experiences that make them think creatively and analytically.

Most of the time, students from Cedar Ridge go to Bloomington High School, which is a well-known high school in the area. Clinton Davisson, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, and Lynne Allsup, an Olympic swimmer, are two of the school's famous graduates. This shows that having a strong academic and extracurricular base can help you do great things.

Families who want to move to the area can rent three-bedroom homes near Cedar Ridge Elementary for $1,200 to $1,800 a month. The size, location, and features of the property all affect the price. This makes the area pretty cheap, but people can still get to schools and other places in the community.
