Summary:

The Paw Paw CUSD 271 district in Illinois is home to one elementary school, Paw Paw Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 with an enrollment of 99 students.

Paw Paw Elementary School stands out for its relatively small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.4, which is lower than the state average. The school's performance on standardized tests has been mixed, with the school outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) in the 2024-2025 school year, but underperforming in mathematics. However, the school's science performance is a bright spot, with a significantly higher percentage of students proficient or better compared to the district and state.

One area of concern for Paw Paw Elementary School is its chronic absenteeism rate, which was 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year, relatively high compared to other schools. The school's spending per student of $21,008 is significantly higher than the state average, which could be a reflection of the district's investment in the school's resources and facilities.
