Summary:
The Field CCSD 3 district in Illinois contains a single elementary school, Field Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school has consistently underperformed compared to the state average, ranking in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools in recent years.
Field Elementary School's academic performance is a concern, with standardized test scores falling below the state averages in English language arts, math, and science. The school's proficiency rates range from 36% to 58.8% in ELA and 10.3% to 46.2% in math, compared to state averages of 53.1% and 38.5%, respectively. Additionally, the school's science proficiency rates are also below the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is significantly higher than the state average, which may be contributing to the academic challenges.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $10,749, which exceeds the state average, the academic performance remains below par. The school serves a population with a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 33.47%, suggesting the school may be facing socioeconomic challenges. Addressing these issues, along with the high chronic absenteeism rate, will be crucial in improving student outcomes at Field Elementary School.
