Summary

Reavis Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Lansing, Illinois, serving 374 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Lansing School District 158, which is ranked 662 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Reavis Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools, with a ranking between 1073-1509 out of around 2,000 schools over the past 5-10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the state and district averages, with only 30-50% of students meeting or exceeding proficiency in English Language Arts and 20-30% in Mathematics. However, Reavis Elementary School performs relatively well in certain student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, ranking in the top 25% of Illinois schools for these subgroups. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 22.6% to 27.0% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Reavis Elementary School's struggles are not unique in the area, as other schools in the Lansing School District 158, such as Oak Glen Elementary and Coolidge Elementary, also rank in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools. However, Reavis Elementary School outperforms some nearby schools in other districts, such as the Dolton School District 149 and Hoover-Schrum Memorial School District 157, which have even lower-performing schools. The high per-student spending of around $17,000 at Reavis Elementary School, which is significantly higher than the state average, also raises questions about the efficient use of resources and the impact on student outcomes.
