Summary:
Hampton has one listed school, Hampton Elementary School, serving kindergarten through grade 8 and enrolling 225 students. Its 2025–26 all-grades results were below Illinois in both English language arts (ELA), 49% versus 56%, and mathematics, 36% versus 40%. The key takeaway is that results have improved, but the school still trails the state in both subjects.
There is no meaningful local top-or-bottom comparison: Hampton Elementary is the only school listed, so it leads and trails the local group by default. Within the school, however, results vary by grade. Eighth-grade mathematics stands out at 55%, about 20 percentage points above the state’s 35%; seventh-grade ELA is the clearest weakness, at 33% versus 58% statewide, a 24-point shortfall. Science was also above the state in both reported grades: grade 8 scored 59% versus 52%, while grade 5 was nearly even at 47.6% versus 47.5%. Grade 4 and grade 5 school mathematics results were suppressed by the state.
All-grades scores rose from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA increased from 42% to 49%, and mathematics from 33% to 36%; the gaps with Illinois narrowed by 4 points and 2 points, respectively. SchoolDigger reports a 45th-percentile standing and 2 stars for 2025–26, compared with the 41st percentile and 2 stars in 2023–24. As context, the school had a 14:1 student–teacher ratio and 40% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25; chronic absenteeism was 11% in 2025–26, below the state’s 24% by 13 points. With only one listed school, there is no school-to-school variation to compare.
