Summary:
The Fox Lake GSD 114 district in Illinois consists of two schools: Lotus School, an elementary school serving grades PK-4, and Stanton School, a middle school serving grades 5-8. Both schools face significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, below-average test scores, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Lotus School has a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% and test scores that are generally below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school has a high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 62.33%. In contrast, Stanton School has a similar chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% and mixed test scores, with English Language Arts performance generally better than Mathematics. Stanton School also has a high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 59.41%.
Both schools have relatively high spending per student, at $20,913 for Lotus School and $21,132 for Stanton School, as well as low student-teacher ratios of 9.5 to 1 and 9 to 1, respectively. However, these resources do not appear to be effectively addressing the academic performance challenges faced by the schools, suggesting that the Fox Lake GSD 114 district may need to re-evaluate its strategies and policies to better support its students.
