Summary:
Sandridge School District 172 in Illinois contains a single elementary school, Sandridge Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, ranking in the bottom 5-10% of Illinois elementary schools over the past three years.
Sandridge Elementary School's academic performance is significantly below the state average. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 18.9% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 13% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 53.1% and 38.5%, respectively. The school's science assessment results are also very low, with only 2.4% of 5th graders and 9.7% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to state averages of 40.6% and 45.4%.
Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $17,458 and a student-teacher ratio of 18.5, which is slightly higher than the state average, the school's academic outcomes remain poor. This suggests that the Sandridge School District 172 may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and implementation of targeted interventions to improve student learning and achievement at Sandridge Elementary School.
