Summary:
The Griggsville-Perry Primary School is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Griggsville-Perry CUSD 4 district. With an enrollment of 147 students, the school faces several challenges, including declining performance, uneven academic proficiency, and high chronic absenteeism rates.
The school has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger, placing it in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools. Its academic performance is mixed, with 4th grade ELA proficiency above the state average but overall ELA and math proficiency rates below the state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is significantly higher than the state average, which could be a contributing factor to its academic struggles.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.3 and higher-than-average spending per student of $16,446, the school's resources do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes. The school's leadership and district administrators may need to closely examine these areas and develop targeted strategies to address the school's performance and support student success.
