Why Irvington Elementary?

Irvington school is a close knit community dedicated to the success of all students and families. At Irvington, we benefit from small class sizes and a talented, experienced staff. Students at Irvington have access to art, music, P.E., and library. In addition to these specials, the Irvington PTA funds exciting enrichment opportunities, such as African drumming and dance, for all students. A wide variety of afterschool programming is offered at Irvington with scholarships for students who qualify.

Irvington school has lots of fun and exciting opportunities to build community. From our Back to School BBQ, to our Fall Festival and our springtime Spaghetti Dinner, Irvington enjoys many PTA sponsored community events. Family gym nights, Movie nights and Free Popcorn Mondays are offered throughout the year. 

Please take a look and explore all the wonderful events Irvington has to offer.
