Summary

Clear Creek Elementary School is a public elementary school in Bloomington, Indiana, serving 304 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Monroe County Community School Corp district.

While Clear Creek Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school faces several challenges. Its chronic absenteeism rates are consistently higher than the district average, ranging from 17.8% to 21.8% in recent years. Academically, the school's ILEARN test scores in English Language Arts and Math are significantly lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, a high percentage of students, ranging from 39.19% to 51.8%, receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a larger proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Interestingly, when comparing Clear Creek Elementary to other nearby schools in the same district, some patterns emerge. Binford Elementary School and Childs Elementary School consistently outperform Clear Creek on academic measures, while schools with higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students, such as Fairview Elementary School and Templeton Elementary School, tend to have lower academic performance. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism and targeting resource allocation could be key focus areas for improvement at Clear Creek Elementary School.
