Summary:
Lindop School District 92 has one listed school, Lindop Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 and 307 students. With no other listed schools in the area, the most useful comparisons are with Illinois results and with the school’s own earlier scores. The clearest concern is all-grades math: in 2025–2026, 22% of students were proficient, compared with 40% statewide, a 17-point gap that widened from 12 points the year before.
There is no meaningful within-area top-to-bottom comparison because Lindop is the only school listed; it is necessarily both the highest and lowest in the group. Compared with Illinois in 2025–2026, its strongest results were in grade 3: 63% proficient in ELA versus 48% statewide, and 56% in math versus 49%. Grade 5 science was also slightly above the state, at 50% versus 48%. The largest shortfall was grade 8 science, with 32% proficient compared with 52% statewide. All-grades ELA was 53%, 4 points below the state’s 56%.
Results changed unevenly over time: all-grades ELA went from 12 points above Illinois in 2024–2025 to 4 points below in 2025–2026, while math fell from 27% to 22% proficient as the statewide result rose from 39% to 40%. Science improved in both tested grades: grade 5 rose 13 points to 50%, and grade 8 rose 7 points to 32%, though grade 8 remained 20 points below the state. SchoolDigger ranked Lindop 848th of 1,737 schools (51st percentile) in 2025–2026, versus 889th of 2,056 (57th percentile) the prior year; the ranking pools differed in size. Chronic absenteeism was 19%, 5 points below the state. The school’s student–teacher ratio was 7.8 in 2024–2025, and 65% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year; these figures provide context, not an explanation for results.
