Summary:

The city of Dunlap, Illinois is home to three elementary schools serving grades K-5: Hickory Grove Elementary School, Banner Elementary School, and Dunlap Grade School. These schools are part of the Dunlap CUSD 323 district.

Among the three schools, Hickory Grove Elementary School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking in the top 10-15% of Illinois elementary schools with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics significantly exceed the district and state averages, often by 20-30 percentage points. Additionally, Hickory Grove has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% compared to the other two schools.

While Banner Elementary School also performs well, with proficiency rates above the district and state levels, Dunlap Grade School lags behind, with proficiency rates below the district averages in many cases. The differences in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios among the three schools suggest that there may be some variation in the resources and funding available to each school, which could impact student outcomes.
