Irving Elementary School in Sioux City, Iowa has implemented an innovative dual-language program where students learn core subjects like math, science, and language arts for half the day in English and half the day in Spanish, helping students to become proficient in both languages. Hunt Elementary is an Arts+ specialty school where subjects are taught through an arts integration model, incorporating dance, drama, music, and visual arts. The other three specialty elementary schools focus on STEM, computer programming, and environmental science. These unique programs have organically developed to make use of the strengths and diversity within the district and provide enriched learning experiences for students.
