Central Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Iowa City Comm School District school district, located in Coralville, IA with about 465 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.
