Summary:

Nettle Creek CCSD 24C is a small school district in Illinois that is home to just one elementary school, Nettle Creek Elementary School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 78 students. Despite its small size, Nettle Creek Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, consistently exceeding state averages in academic proficiency and earning top rankings among Illinois elementary schools.

Nettle Creek Elementary School's academic performance is particularly impressive, with proficiency rates on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exams that far surpass the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across multiple grade levels. For instance, in the 2024-2025 school year, 76.9% of 4th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 51.2%. This strong academic performance has earned the school a ranking among the top 190 elementary schools in Illinois in the 2023-2024 school year and the top 408 in the 2024-2025 school year, with a 4- or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The district's overall performance is also noteworthy, with Nettle Creek CCSD 24C ranked 173rd out of 811 districts in Illinois and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. This high-performing district is likely supported by the small class sizes and relatively high per-student spending at Nettle Creek Elementary School, which may contribute to the school's academic success.
