Summary:

The Opdyke-Belle-Rive CCSD 5 district consists of a single elementary school, Opdyke-Belle Rive Grade School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 138 students.

Opdyke-Belle Rive Grade School has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 580th out of 2,077 Illinois elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 1,218th out of 2,056 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on standardized tests is also worrying, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science well below the state averages across all grade levels. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 18.8% to 76.5% in ELA and 6.3% to 30% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 47.3% to 56.7% in ELA and 32.7% to 49.6% in Mathematics. The school's 8th-grade science proficiency rate was only 7.7%, significantly lower than the state average of 45.4%.

Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $18,646 for the 2023-2024 school year and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2, the academic performance remains poor. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and implement more effective strategies and programs to address the unique needs of its student population, which has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 61.59% in 2023-2024.
