Summary:
The city of Thawville, Illinois has only one school, Iroquois West Elementary School/Thawville, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. This school is part of the Iroquois West CUSD 10 district and has consistently performed well compared to state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency.
Iroquois West Elementary School/Thawville has been ranked in the top half of Illinois elementary schools over the past three school years, indicating strong academic performance. The school's English Language Arts proficiency rates have exceeded the state average by a significant margin, while its Mathematics proficiency rates have also surpassed the state average, though by a smaller margin. However, the school's 5th grade Science proficiency rate is lower than the state average, suggesting an area for potential improvement.
Despite having a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating economic disadvantage, Iroquois West Elementary School/Thawville spends more per student than the state average and maintains a lower student-teacher ratio. This suggests the school is investing resources to support its students. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate is relatively high, which could impact student learning and achievement and is an area that may require further attention.
