At Irving Elementary, parents, teachers and staff work together to provide an excellent education to about 550 Joplin students from Preschool through 5^th grade. Our Motto is Learn-Laugh-Lead! We believe all of Irving’s students, staff, and families are meant to be lifelong learners. We also know the importance of relationships, so we are intentional about creating an engaging learning environment that celebrates successes and fosters positive interactions. We do this to create leaders in our classrooms, school, and community by modeling expectations. We are Learning Today for a Better Tomorrow!
