Summary:
The Indian Springs School District 109 in Illinois is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The district's schools display a range of academic performance, with some standout institutions leading the way and others facing challenges.
At the top of the district's schools is Frank A Brodnicki Elementary School, which outperforms both the district and state averages on the IAR/English Language Arts and IAR/Mathematics assessments. This school boasts the highest proficiency rates in 5th grade ELA (78.8%) and 3rd grade Math (68.8%), and is ranked in the top 30% of Illinois elementary schools. Another strong performer is Robina Lyle Elementary School, which excels in 5th grade ELA with 71.1% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages.
In contrast, Bridgeview Elementary School and George T Wilkins Elementary School have lower proficiency rates, particularly in Math, compared to the district and state. Additionally, the district as a whole faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. The district spends more per student than the state average, but this does not necessarily translate to higher academic performance across all schools, suggesting the need for a closer examination of resource allocation and instructional practices.
