Summary:
The Sherrard CUSD 200 district in Illinois is home to two elementary schools: Winola Elementary School and Sherrard Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade in the Sherrard community.
Based on the available data, Winola Elementary School appears to be the standout performer in the district. Winola consistently outperforms the district and state averages on state assessments, with 56.5% of its students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 43.5% proficient or better in math, compared to 47.3% and 33.4% for the district, respectively. Winola also has a higher school-wide ranking, placing in the top 40% of Illinois elementary schools, while Sherrard Elementary School is in the bottom 50%.
However, both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates around 25%. Additionally, while Winola outperforms the district and state, there are still significant performance gaps, especially in math. Winola's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio suggest it has more resources available, which may contribute to its stronger academic outcomes. Overall, the data highlights the need for continued improvement across the Sherrard CUSD 200 district to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
