Summary:
The Eureka CUD 140 school district in Illinois is home to three exceptional elementary schools: Congerville Elementary School, Goodfield Elementary School, and Davenport Elementary School. These schools consistently rank among the top performers in the state, with Congerville Elementary standing out as a true standout, ranking in the top 10% of Illinois elementary schools.
Congerville Elementary is the district's shining star, boasting exceptional test scores with 93.5% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 74.2% proficient or better in Mathematics, far surpassing the district and state averages. The school has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating its commitment to providing a high-quality education. Goodfield Elementary also demonstrates strong performance, ranking in the top 25% of Illinois elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating.
While the district as a whole appears to be performing well, with all three schools exceeding state averages in test scores, there is one area of concern: the high chronic absenteeism rate across all three schools, which stands at 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year. The district may want to investigate the root causes of this issue and implement strategies to improve student attendance. Additionally, the variation in spending per student, ranging from $11,194 at Davenport to $14,163 at Goodfield, suggests the need for a closer examination of resource allocation to ensure equitable funding across all schools.
