Summary:

The Springfield School District 186 in Illinois is home to 22 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 714 out of 811 school districts in Illinois and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, but a few standout schools within the district are performing significantly better than the district and state averages.

Iles Elementary School ranks 9th out of 2,056 elementary schools in Illinois and is rated 5 out of 5 stars, with exceptional test scores where over 90% of students are proficient or better in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Springfield Ball Charter School also stands out, ranking 1,273 out of 2,056 elementary schools but with notably higher test scores than the district and state, particularly in 8th grade English Language Arts. Additionally, Owen Marsh Elementary School ranks 728 out of 2,056 and has strong performance in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools in the district, which may be influenced by socioeconomic factors and funding disparities. The district as a whole also faces challenges, such as a consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% across all schools, which is an issue the district should address to improve student learning and achievement.
