Summary:
The city of Roscoe, Illinois is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school that serve students from kindergarten through 8th grade. The schools in this Kinnikinnick CCSD 131 district have varying levels of academic performance, with the middle school standing out as a high-performing institution.
Roscoe Middle School is the clear standout in the district, consistently ranking among the top middle schools in Illinois and outperforming state and district averages on standardized assessments. In contrast, the elementary schools in Roscoe, while respectable, lag behind the middle school's exceptional performance. The district's elementary schools, Ledgewood Elementary, Kinnikinnick School, and Stone Creek School, have proficiency rates that are lower than the middle school's.
One area of concern across all schools in the district is the high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 31.72%. This is an issue the district should address to ensure students are attending school regularly and maximizing their learning opportunities. The district appears to allocate resources fairly evenly, with per-student spending ranging from $11,659 to $12,953 per year, suggesting the opportunity for improvement may lie in targeted strategies to support the lower-performing elementary schools.
