Elementary Schools in Mattoon CUSD 2


Summary:

The Mattoon CUSD 2 school district in Illinois is home to three elementary schools: Arland D Williams Junior Elementary School, Riddle Elementary School, and Franklin Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.

Arland D Williams Junior Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with exceptional test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and 5th grade Science that exceed both district and state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is also lower than the state average, indicating strong student engagement. In contrast, Riddle Elementary School lags behind in overall test scores but shows some strengths, such as a higher 5th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate compared to the district and state.

The data also reveals significant differences in resource allocation and student-teacher ratios across the three schools. Franklin Elementary School has the highest per-student spending but also the highest student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to the lack of available test score data for the school. These variations in school characteristics and performance highlight the need for a closer examination of the factors that contribute to educational outcomes within the Mattoon CUSD 2 district.
