Summary:
The three schools in Ccsd 168 serve students from prekindergarten through grade 8: Wagoner Elementary serves PK–2, Strassburg Elementary serves grades 3–5, and Rickover Junior High School serves grades 6–8. Together they enroll 1,243 students. In the supplied 2025–2026 all-grades IAR results, Strassburg had 22% proficient in ELA and 7% in math, compared with state rates of 56% and 40%; Rickover had 33% and 8%, also below the state. The most important finding is that every supplied grade-specific IAR result is below its state comparison, with particularly low math proficiency.
Rickover has the strongest reported all-grades results, leading Strassburg by 11 points in ELA (33% versus 22%); their math results are nearly tied, with a difference under 1 point. Strassburg’s largest shown grade-level gap is grade 3 math: 10% proficient versus 49% statewide, a 39-point difference. Rickover’s strongest relative result is grade 8 ELA, at 39% versus 63% statewide, while its grade 7 math result is 9% versus 40%. Attendance is a concern at all three schools: chronic absenteeism was 37% at Wagoner, 32% at Strassburg and 29% at Rickover, all above the state’s 24%; Wagoner’s rate was 13 points higher than the state’s.
Recent score trends differ: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Rickover rose 7 points in ELA and 4 in math, while Strassburg fell 4 points in ELA and was nearly unchanged in math. SchoolDigger ranks Ccsd 168 738th of 738, with 0 stars; its 2025–2026 rank percentiles are 1st for Strassburg and 4th for Rickover. Student-teacher ratios are 12.5 at Wagoner, 15.6 at Strassburg and 24.7 at Rickover. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 51%, 56% and 52%, respectively—useful context, not an explanation for results. Wagoner has no supplied test scores, and the schools’ different grade spans mean their all-grades scores are not grade-matched comparisons.
