Irving Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Kansas elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments compared to the district and state. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 24.36% of Irving Elementary students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 28.89% in Wichita and 44.47% statewide. The school's student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, also perform poorly, ranking in the bottom 20-30% of their respective subgroups in Kansas.
