Summary:
The Pearl City CUSD 200 district contains a single elementary school, Pearl City Elementary School, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exam is mixed compared to district and state averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and 5th-grade science lagging behind state levels, but mathematics proficiency exceeding the district average.
Pearl City Elementary School faces some socioeconomic challenges, with over 50% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. However, the school benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.4 to 1 and higher per-student spending compared to the state average. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, suggesting potential areas for improvement, particularly in ELA and science instruction.
Overall, while Pearl City CUSD 200 has only one elementary school, the data provides valuable insights into its strengths and areas for growth. By analyzing the school's performance trends, resource allocation, and strategies for addressing socioeconomic challenges, the district can work to enhance student learning and ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
