Summary:
The Rossville-Alvin CUSD 7 district in Illinois has a total of 2 schools, including 1 elementary school and 1 high school. The standout school in the district appears to be Rossville-Alvin Elementary School, which has consistently higher test scores in English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages.
While Rossville-Alvin Elementary School outperforms in ELA, it struggles in mathematics and science, with significantly lower proficiency rates than the state. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which may be contributing to the lower overall academic performance. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, with a free and reduced lunch rate of 51.24%.
Despite the challenges, Rossville-Alvin Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.4, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. The school also has a higher spending per student of $14,044 compared to the state average, but it's unclear if this additional funding is being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes.
