Irving Elementary School in Bloomington, Illinois
Irving Elementary School, part of Bloomington School District 87, provides education for students in grades K–5 and is known for its supportive learning environment. With a student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 12:1, the school offers smaller class sizes, allowing teachers to provide more individualized attention and support to each student.
According to recent state education data, around 5% of students at Irving Elementary demonstrate proficiency in math, which is below the district average of about 14%. While academic performance varies across the district, Irving continues to focus on improving student outcomes through targeted instruction and community involvement.
Most Irving Elementary students advance to Bloomington High School, a respected institution recognized for its strong arts and athletics programs. The high school has produced several accomplished graduates in fields like business and sports over the years. Nearby schools, such as Sheridan Elementary and Bent Elementary, show slightly higher math proficiency rates (between 12–18%), reflecting the district’s varied academic landscape.
Despite these differences, Irving Elementary remains a valued part of the Bloomington education system and continues to strive toward its goal of being among the best elementary schools in Illinois through consistent growth, dedicated teachers, and an inclusive school culture.
