Summary:
Riverview CCSD 2 is a school district in Illinois that contains only one elementary school, Riverview Elementary School. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade and is located in a community facing significant socioeconomic challenges.
Riverview Elementary School is a low-performing school, ranking 1706 out of 2056 Illinois elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on standardized tests in English Language Arts (33.3%) and Mathematics (18.5%) are well below the state averages of 53.1% and 38.5%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly weak in 3rd and 4th grade ELA and Math, with proficiency rates ranging from 7.1% to 21.4%. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2 and higher per-student spending of $14,976 for the 2023-2024 school year, Riverview Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Illinois elementary schools over the past three school years. The high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (56.94%) at the school suggests that the significant economically disadvantaged student population may be a contributing factor to the school's poor academic performance, and additional resources or targeted interventions may be needed to address the underlying issues and improve student outcomes.
