Summary:

The East Moline School District 37 in Illinois is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from pre-K through 5th grade. These schools face significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance and high levels of economic disadvantage among the student populations.

Among the district's elementary schools, Bowlesburg Elementary School stands out as the top performer, with the highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other schools. Ridgewood Elementary School, the largest school in the district with 414 students, also performs better than the district average but still lags behind state standards.

However, the district as a whole faces significant challenges. All schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 25.4%, which is much higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools have extremely high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The district's performance on standardized tests, such as the Illinois Assessment of Readiness, is consistently low, lagging behind state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Addressing these performance gaps and resource disparities should be a priority for the district's leadership.
