Summary

Chadwick-Milledgeville Elementary School is a small K–5 school in Milledgeville, Illinois, with 192 students—the smallest enrollment among the 10 nearby schools listed. Its 2025–26 Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) results are strong compared with state results and most nearby schools. The clearest finding is that it ranks second among six nearby schools with comparable all-grade results in both English Language Arts (ELA) and math.

The school is especially strong in math: 62% of students were proficient, compared with 40% statewide and 51% in the district; ELA proficiency was 68%, versus 56% statewide and 69% districtwide. In both subjects, only Centennial Elementary School scored higher among the six nearby schools with results. Within the school, grades 4 and 5 stand out, while third grade is a relative soft spot: ELA proficiency was 49% in grade 3, 71% in grade 4 and 85% in grade 5. Grade 5 ELA was the highest among nearby schools reporting that grade, while grade 4 math was the highest among nearby schools reporting grade 4.

Results have climbed substantially since 2023–24, although both subjects eased from their 2024–25 highs: ELA went from 51% to 70% to 68%, and math from 48% to 66% to 62%. The school remains above state results in both subjects. SchoolDigger ranks it at the 76th statewide percentile with four stars in 2025–26, second among seven nearby schools with a reported percentile, though down from the 83rd percentile in 2023–24. Context includes a 2024–25 student–teacher ratio of 11.6, the lowest among nearby schools, and 8% chronic absenteeism in 2025–26, below the district’s 14% and the state’s 24%. The school’s 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible measure was 46%. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure placed the school at the 96th percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students in 2024–25, compared with 77th overall; its Female Students percentile fell from 79th in 2022–23 to 59th in 2024–25.
