1464^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,737 Illinois Elementary Schools

Better than 16% of Illinois elementary schools

Summary

Frohardt Elementary School serves 452 students in grades K–6 in Granite City, in Granite City CUSD 9. In 2025–2026, 37% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 23% in math. The clearest takeaway is that Frohardt led the district’s other five K–6 schools in both subjects, yet remained well below state rates: 56% in ELA and 40% in math.

Frohardt’s strongest results are in ELA and math: it exceeded district rates by 8 and 10 percentage points, respectively, and topped the next-highest same-district school by 1 point in ELA and 2 points in math. Fifth-grade science is a weaker spot: 22% were proficient, compared with 28% districtwide and 48% statewide; among six same-district schools, Frohardt ranked fourth. Attendance compares better locally: chronic absenteeism was 28%, the lowest among those six schools, but still 5 points above the state rate.

Results have improved, especially in ELA: proficiency rose from 13% in 2023–2024 to 37% in 2025–2026, narrowing the state gap from 28 points to 19. Math also rose, from 13% to 23%, though its state gap widened slightly, from 16 to 17 points. SchoolDigger ranks Frohardt 1,464 of 1,737 statewide, at the 16th percentile and 1 star. Its 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 16.1:1, close to the 15.9:1 average at same-district peers; 74% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well Frohardt serves Hispanic students fell from the 24th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 3rd percentile in 2024–2025, a sharper drop than the overall percentile’s decline from 19 to 15.
