Summary:

Raccoon Cons School District 1 has one listed school, Raccoon Cons Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 and enrolling 204 students. With no other schools in the list, there is no meaningful school-to-school ranking; the school’s all-grades results are also the district’s results. The clearest finding is a sharp split by subject: in 2025–26, ELA was above the state, while mathematics was below it.

Raccoon Cons Elementary School is the only school to consider, so it cannot be identified as a leader or trailer among local schools. Its strongest broad result was ELA: 64% met the benchmark, compared with 56% statewide, an 8-point advantage. Mathematics was weaker, at 33% versus 40% statewide, a 7-point shortfall. The grade-level results show that the ELA lead varied: the school was ahead of the state by 32 points in grade 3, 4 in grade 5, 25 in grade 6, and 16 in grade 7. Grade 5 science also remained above the state, 53% versus 48%, and chronic absenteeism was lower, at 10% versus 24% statewide.

Recent results make the math trend a concern, even though ELA remains above the state. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, the school’s ELA advantage narrowed from 13 points to 8, while its math result shifted from 2 points above the state to 7 points below. Grade 5 science’s lead also narrowed, from 17 points to 6. SchoolDigger gives the school a 3-star rating and ranks it in the 69th percentile statewide in 2025–26; its percentile was 61 in 2023–24 and 70 in 2024–25. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 12.7, and 48% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. These figures describe the school’s context but do not show how it compares with similar schools.
