What is the best elementary school in Bloomington?
Childs Elementary School in Bloomington, Indiana ranks first among elementary schools in Bloomington with a Success Index (US) of 86.9 out of 100 (Enrollment: 446).
How are elementary schools in Bloomington ranked?

Are these 2025 rankings official?
No. They are computed by Success Tutoring from official American data (Urban Institute Education Data Portal (NCES CCD, EDFacts); NCES Common Core of Data).
