Clear Creek Elementary serves families living in the southern fringe of Bloomington and the south central portion of Monroe County. Although the present building was new in 1990, Clear Creek has a long-standing reputation in the community as a desirable environment for the young learner. Clear Creek classes are organized in a variety of structures which provide choices to meet the needs of individual students. These choices include self-contained one-year classes, a two year format in several primary classrooms, and a three year multi-age program in both primary and intermediate. All the teachers share a commitment to provide the best possible learning experience for every child by adapting sound educational practice to the individual student's learning style, strengths, and areas of needed growth. This commitment includes the special education students and accelerated learners who reside in our attendance area.
