Summary

Longwood Elementary School in Glenwood, Illinois, serves prekindergarten through grade 4 and enrolls 364 students. Its latest results show a marked split: math proficiency is stronger than English language arts (ELA) relative to its district, while chronic absenteeism is comparatively low. The central concern is that achievement remains low overall: in 2025–2026, only 23% of students were proficient in ELA and 21% in math, both well below state results.

Longwood’s relative math strength shows up against Brookwood School District 167: its 21% proficiency was 8 points higher than the district’s, while its 23% in ELA was 10 points lower. Compared with Illinois, Longwood trailed by 19 points in math and 33 in ELA. Nearby results also put its scores toward the low end: Longwood was third-lowest in ELA among schools with exact results, and its 23% was 22 points below their average. Its math result was 12 points below the nearby-school average, though it was 6 points above Hickory Bend Elementary School, the one nearby school listed with a lower exact result. Attendance is a bright spot: Longwood’s 12% chronic absenteeism rate was 12 points below the state and 14 below the district, second-lowest among nearby schools with data.

Results have shifted over time: ELA proficiency rose from 12% in 2023–2024 to 27% the next year, then fell to 23%; math declined from 23% to 21% in the latest year. SchoolDigger rates Longwood at the 8th percentile statewide for 2025–2026, with 0 stars. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 15.4, and 57% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. One subgroup result stands out: SchoolDigger placed African American students at the 51st percentile in 2024–2025, compared with the school’s overall 17th percentile, but the subgroup ranking fell to the 13th percentile the following year. Nearby schools differ in grade span, and the number of schools included in statewide rankings can change by year, so these comparisons are not perfectly like-for-like.
