Summary

Barbour Two-Way Lang Immersion is a K–8 school serving 628 students in Rockford, in Rockford School District 205. Its latest results make it one of the stronger nearby schools academically, though its proficiency rates remain below the state overall. The clearest takeaway is that Barbour compares well with most nearby schools, especially in ELA, but has not yet reached state proficiency levels in either subject.

In 2025–2026, 48% of Barbour students were proficient in ELA and 23% in math, the second-highest results among nearby schools with reported scores in each subject; only Haskell STEAM Academy scored higher. Barbour’s ELA result was 26 points above the nearby-school average of 22%, and its math result was 5 points above the reported nearby average of 18%. Compared with the state, however, Barbour was 8 points lower in ELA and 17 points lower in math; its math result was just 1 point above the district’s. ELA also varies substantially by grade: third grade was 22% proficient, compared with 73% in eighth grade; seventh grade reached 59%, above the state’s 58%. Some nearby math results and Barbour’s sixth- and eighth-grade math results are unavailable because they were suppressed.

Results have improved since 2023–2024: ELA rose from 22% to 48%, and math from 8% to 23%; the gap with the state narrowed by 11 points in ELA and 4 points in math. Chronic absenteeism also fell sharply, from 37% in 2021–2022 to 6% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 41% and state’s 24%; only Haskell was similarly low among nearby schools. SchoolDigger gave Barbour a 2025–2026 overall percentile of 16 and 1 star, despite its strong recent position among nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio was 19.2 in 2024–2025. That year, 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby-school average of 73%. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well it serves English Language Learner Students rose to a percentile of 33 in 2024–2025, from 13 two years earlier. Its measure for Low Socio Economic Status Students fell to 14 in 2025–2026, from 33 the prior year.
