Bishop Elementary School is a primary school located at 8888 Whittaker Road in Ypsilanti, Michigan, United States.

One of the special programs offered at Bishop Elementary is the Spanish Immersion program, where students are taught the same curriculum in Spanish, with English being introduced later on. This program helps students leave elementary school proficient in two languages.
