NEW Pick-Up & Drop-off Routes at Irving Elementary:  Joplin Schools and the City of Joplin are committed to safety in our community. In an effort to improve safety and efficiency by reducing traffic congestion on St. John’s Boulevard and McClelland Boulevard, we are implementing a new system for student drop-off and pick-up. The new system will be in effect on the first day of school, Thursday, August 17, 2017. Signage will be posted on the campus to assist in providing direction. Check out the maps for details.
