Summary

Brookport Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 153 students in grades PK-6 in Brookport, Illinois, which is part of the Massac UD 1 school district. The school consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency, with particularly strong performance in 5th grade ELA and Science. Brookport Elementary also excels in supporting the academic achievement of its female and low-socioeconomic status (SES) student populations, often ranking among the top Illinois elementary schools in these subgroups.

However, the school faces a challenge with relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, which are above the state average. Despite this, Brookport Elementary spends more per student and maintains a lower student-teacher ratio than the state average, suggesting the district is allocating significant resources to support the educational needs of its students. When compared to nearby schools in the Massac UD 1 district, Franklin Elementary School and Jefferson Elementary School outperform Brookport Elementary in overall academic proficiency, particularly in Mathematics, while Metropolis Elementary School has lower proficiency rates but still performs above the state average.

Overall, Brookport Elementary School appears to be a strong-performing school within the Massac UD 1 district, with particular strengths in ELA and Science proficiency, as well as in supporting the academic achievement of its female and low-SES student populations. However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rates and the stronger performance of some nearby schools suggest areas for potential improvement and collaboration within the district.
