Summary:
Savoy, Illinois is home to a single elementary school, Carrie Busey Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The school is part of the Champaign CUSD 4 district, which is ranked 631 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Carrie Busey Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, going from 305 out of 2,077 Illinois elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 749 out of 2,056 in 2024-2025. While the school's overall performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, is generally higher than the Champaign CUSD 4 district average, it is still lower than the state of Illinois average. The school has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 37.03% in the 2023-2024 school year, and a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year, which is relatively high.
Despite the school's investment in staffing and resources, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.5 to 1 and per-student spending of $16,600 for the 2023-2024 school year, the declining performance and high chronic absenteeism rate suggest that the school may be facing challenges in improving student outcomes. Further analysis may be needed to identify the root causes and potential areas for improvement.
