Summary:
The Allen-Otter Creek CCSD 65 district in Illinois has only one elementary school, Ransom Grade School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 94 students.
Ransom Grade School does not appear to be a standout performer in the district or the state of Illinois. The school's academic performance on standardized tests, such as the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) and the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA), is generally below the state averages, with some exceptions in specific grade levels. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is significantly higher than the state average, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance. Despite the school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio, these factors alone do not seem to be driving improved outcomes.
Overall, the data suggests that Ransom Grade School is a struggling school within its district and the state of Illinois, with declining academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and potential equity concerns. Further investigation into the root causes of these issues and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve the school's outcomes and better support the students and families in the Allen-Otter Creek CCSD 65 district.
