Springfield Elementary
Animated town's school
Springfield Elementary is the fictional school attended by Bart and Lisa Simpson on the animated television series *The Simpsons*.
It serves as a satirical stand-in for American public education—underfunded, chaotic, and staffed by burned-out teachers.
The name has become shorthand for dysfunctional schools: This place is like Springfield Elementary.
