School Overview

Gerald A. Smith Elementary sits in Bloomington, a working-class community in the western edge of San Bernardino County where families tend to put down roots and stay. The school serves a tight-knit neighborhood, and while its academic scores are still developing — particularly in science — it's part of a district that families in this area have grown up with for generations. Families looking for a school with a strong sense of community identity in an affordable, unpretentious corner of the Inland Empire will feel at home here.
