Summary

Ireland Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Jasper, IN, serving 548 students as part of Greater Jasper Consolidated Schools, with a relatively low-poverty student population for the area. It has been a consistently strong performer, earning 5 stars and ranking between the 91st and 98th percentile in Indiana from 2015–16 through 2024–25. In 2025–26, it ranked 164th of 1,015 schools, placing in the 84th percentile with 4 stars—still strong, but a notable dip. Math is the clearest standout: all-grade math proficiency was 72.22%, compared with 56.72% in the district, and 3rd grade math reached 89.89%, far above the district’s 70.83% and the state’s 51.9%.

English Language Arts is solid but less dominant: all-grade ELA was 54.37%, only 1.39 points above the district, and 5th grade ELA was 44.57%, slightly above district and state. Science and social studies exceeded district and state averages. Attendance is a major strength, with chronic absenteeism at 2.9% in 2024–25, compared with 5.4% district and 16.7% state; among nearby schools, only Pine Ridge Elementary School (0.0%) and Otwell Miller Academy (1.7%) were lower. The school’s free/reduced lunch rate of 17.88% is the lowest among nearby schools, which helps explain some advantages, though it still outperforms higher-poverty peers like Holland Elementary School and Ferdinand Elementary School in math. It does this with mid-range resources: $10,198 per student and a 15.9 student-teacher ratio.

Compared with same-district Jasper Elementary School, it has much lower poverty and absenteeism but much higher achievement in ELA, math, and science, despite slightly lower per-student spending. Nearby, Holland Elementary School reported higher science (59.38%), and Ferdinand Elementary School had strong math (70.19%), but the school’s all-grade math remained the highest in the group. Trends to watch: chronic absenteeism has risen from 1.0% in 2021–22 to 2.9% in 2024–25; free/reduced lunch has increased from 14.52% in 2022–23 to 17.88% in 2024–25; and 2025–26 test scores declined across ELA (66.67% to 54.37%), math (82.93% to 72.22%), and science (71.28% to 56.34%). The student-teacher ratio improved from 18.3 in 2022–23 to 15.9 in 2024–25. The school remains one of the stronger elementary schools in the region.
