Summary

Village Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 1-5 in Round Lake, Illinois, with an enrollment of 321 students. The school is part of the Round Lake CUSD 116 district, which is ranked 787 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Village Elementary School faces significant challenges, including consistently underperforming on standardized tests compared to state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 30.6% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 18.5% were proficient in math, well below the state averages. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.2% to 31.8% over the past few years. Additionally, Village Elementary serves a high-poverty student population, with 80.87% to 85.05% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, the other elementary schools in the Round Lake CUSD 116 district, such as Round Lake Beach Elementary and Indian Hill Elementary, also perform poorly on standardized tests and have high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism. This suggests that the challenges facing Village Elementary School are part of a broader, systemic issue within the district.
