Summary

Summit Elementary School is a public PK–6 school in Bloomington, Indiana, serving 617 students as part of Monroe County Community School Corp — the largest enrollment among the nearby comparison elementary schools. The district as a whole is relatively strong, ranking 108 of 374 Indiana districts at the 71st percentile with 4 stars, but Summit's own standing is lower: 600 of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools in 2025–2026, at the 41st percentile with 2 stars.

Summit trails its district in every major subject on the 2025–2026 ILEARN exams. English Language Arts comes in at 29.91% versus the district's 46.44%, math at 39.38% versus 49.65%, and science at 41.14% versus 50.30%. Early literacy is the clearest concern, with 3rd grade ELA at 25.84% against a state average of 40.80% and 4th grade ELA at 26.58% against 42.20%. Relative strengths include 6th grade science (44.30% vs. a state average of 41.20%), plus 5th grade ELA and math. The school ranked 274 of 1,016 at the 73rd percentile in 2020–2021 and has since plateaued in the low-to-mid 40s percentile range.

Among nearby schools, Summit sits in the middle: below Childs Elementary School, Binford Elementary School and Fairview Elementary School, but above Templeton Elementary School, Arlington Heights Elementary School and Clear Creek Elementary School. Notably, Fairview serves a higher share of students from low-income families (68.12% free/reduced lunch, compared with Summit's 50.73%) yet posts much higher proficiency in ELA (44.71%), math (50.59%) and science (48.84%), so results here don't appear to be purely about demographics. Attendance is a genuine bright spot: chronic absenteeism fell to 12.3% in 2024–25, below both the district (17.7%) and state (16.7%) averages. Per-student spending reached $14,352 in 2023–24, up 35.5% since 2021–22, with a 13.5 student-teacher ratio, while test scores stayed flat or slipped.
