Summary:
Andalusia, Illinois, has one school in the supplied list: Andalusia Elementary School, serving grades 3–5 with 272 students. In 2025–26, its all-grades ELA proficiency was 2 points below the state, while math was 3 points above. Because it is the only listed school, there is no school-to-school comparison. The clearest takeaway is that ELA results differ substantially by grade: a strong fourth-grade result sits alongside weaker third- and fifth-grade results.
The school’s standout results in 2025–26 were fourth-grade ELA and fifth-grade science; its clearest weakness against the state was fifth-grade ELA. Fourth-grade ELA proficiency was 70%, 14 points above the state’s 56%, and fifth-grade science was 55%, 7 points above the state’s 48%. By contrast, fifth-grade ELA was 47%, 8 points below the state’s 55%; third-grade ELA was also below the state, at 43% compared with 48%. These grade-level contrasts are more informative than the school’s overall ELA result.
