Summary:

The Ridgeland School District 122 in Illinois serves students from 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school. Based on the available data, Columbus Manor Elementary School stands out as the top-performing school in the district, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and 5th grade science compared to the district and state averages. The school also has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and a relatively low student-teacher ratio.

However, the data reveals significant disparities between the schools in the district. While Columbus Manor excels, other schools like Ernest F Kolb Elementary lag behind in academic performance. Chronic absenteeism rates are high across the district, ranging from 25.4% to 25.4%, which likely impacts student learning. Additionally, the district faces socioeconomic challenges, with free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 60% to 77.87%.

The per-student spending in the district also varies widely, from $13,621 at Simmons Middle School to $16,197 at Ernest F Kolb Elementary, raising questions about resource allocation. While the district outperforms the state average in English Language Arts, it falls below the state average in Mathematics, suggesting an area for improvement district-wide.
