Summary:
Channahon School District 17 has four schools serving a continuous span from prekindergarten through grade 8: N B Galloway Elementary School serves PK–2, Pioneer Path grades 3–4, Three Rivers School grades 5–6, and Channahon Junior High School grades 7–8. Galloway has no supplied test scores, and because the schools cover different grades, their all-grade results are not same-grade comparisons. The clearest overall finding is that every supplied grade-specific result—14 comparisons across ELA, math, and science—was above the state result for that grade.
The all-grade leaders differ by subject: Junior High had the strongest 2025–2026 ELA result at 80%, followed by Three Rivers at 77% and Pioneer Path at 72%; Three Rivers led math at 63%, compared with 58.8% at Pioneer Path and 58.6% at Junior High. That puts Junior High about 3 points ahead of Three Rivers and 8 points ahead of Pioneer Path in ELA, while Three Rivers was about 4 points ahead of each school in math. Pioneer Path is the main exception in the year-to-year picture: its all-grade math result was the lowest and fell 12 points, although its third- and fourth-grade math results were each 14 points above the state results for those grades.
ELA improved at all three schools with scores from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: by 7 points at Junior High, 9 at Three Rivers, and 7 at Pioneer Path. Math rose by 3 points at Junior High and 2 at Three Rivers, while Pioneer Path’s 12-point decline pulled down the three-school average. SchoolDigger ranked Junior High at the 83rd percentile in both recent years; Pioneer Path fell from the 85th percentile to the 77th. Student-teacher ratios were 14.9 at Junior High, 12.8 at Three Rivers, and 11.8 at Pioneer Path; their free/reduced lunch eligible shares in 2023–2024 were 17%, 20%, and 24%, respectively. These figures offer context, not explanations for school results.
