Summary:
The CUSD 3 Fulton County district in Illinois contains a single elementary school, Cuba Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's academic performance has been inconsistent in recent years, with fluctuations in its statewide ranking and mixed results on standardized tests.
Cuba Elementary School's performance on English Language Arts (ELA) tests has been a relative strength, outperforming the district and state averages in 2024-2025. However, the school has underperformed in Mathematics and Science during that same period. In the previous year, 2023-2024, the school's ELA performance was below the district and state averages, and its Mathematics performance was significantly lower. The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.8 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention to students.
Economically, Cuba Elementary School faces challenges, with over 51% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The school's per-student spending of $16,185 in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, which may suggest a focus on resource allocation and support for the students. However, without comparative data from other schools in the district or region, it is difficult to fully assess the school's performance and identify areas for improvement.
