Summary:

The Farmington Central CUSD 265 district in Illinois has one elementary school, Farmington Central Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has an enrollment of 620 students. While the school has some positive metrics, such as higher-than-average mathematics proficiency rates compared to the state, it also faces challenges, including lower-than-average proficiency in English Language Arts and Science, as well as a high chronic absenteeism rate.

Farmington Central Elementary School's performance on state assessments has declined over the past few years, with proficiency rates in both ELA and mathematics dropping from 2023-2024 to 2024-2025. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in 2024-2025 is a concern and may be contributing to the declining academic performance. Additionally, while the school's mathematics proficiency rates are higher than the state average, they are lower than the district average, suggesting room for improvement.

The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, 45.97% in 2023-2024, indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may impact academic achievement. However, the school's higher-than-average spending per student and lower-than-average student-teacher ratio suggest that resources are being allocated to support student learning, but the academic outcomes do not yet reflect the investment. Overall, Farmington Central CUSD 265 appears to have an average-performing elementary school, with some areas of concern that require further attention and improvement.
