Summary

Riverview Elementary School in South Beloit serves 199 students in grades 2–4 in County of Winnebago School District 320. Its clearest academic concern is fourth-grade performance: in 2025–26, 17% of fourth-graders were proficient in math, 25 percentage points below the state and 44 points below the average for nearby schools with reported fourth-grade scores.

Riverview’s results are stronger than its district’s overall, but remain below the state’s: 49% of students were proficient in ELA and 30% in math, compared with 43% and 18% districtwide and 56% and 40% statewide. Its fourth-grade ELA result was also below every reported nearby result, while third grade was stronger than fourth grade in both subjects. Riverview’s chronic absenteeism was a bright spot at 9% in 2025–26, well below the district’s 22% and the state’s 24%. Nearby schools serve different grade spans, so same-grade results offer the most useful academic comparisons.

Proficiency has risen over three reported years: ELA increased from 23% in 2023–24 to 49% in 2025–26, and math from 12% to 30%. The state gaps narrowed over that period, although both subjects remain below state results. SchoolDigger ranks Riverview 1,202nd of 1,737 Illinois schools, at the 31st percentile with 2 stars; the district ranks 624th of 738, at the 15th percentile with 1 star. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness percentile is notably higher for Low Socio Economic Status Students, at 66, than Riverview’s overall 31; for White Students, it is 11. Riverview’s student–teacher ratio is 12.3:1, below the average of 13.9:1 among nearby schools reporting a ratio. It reports 65% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, the highest rate among nearby schools reporting the same measure.
