Public Prekindergarten Grades PK

Summary

F B Mccord Elementary School is a public elementary school in Burbank, Illinois, serving 254 students in grades K-5 and part of the Burbank School District 111.

The school faces several challenges, including consistently low academic performance, with only 24.1% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 16.1% proficient in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 20.9% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the state average of 17.5%. Additionally, 68.11% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to other elementary schools in the district, such as J.B. Kennedy Elementary School, which had higher proficiency rates, F B Mccord Elementary School consistently underperforms.

Despite increased spending per student, from $13,669 in 2019-2020 to $18,817 in 2022-2023, the school has not seen a corresponding improvement in student outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio has also fluctuated, from 17.5 in 2021-2022 to 14.4 in 2022-2023, but this change does not appear to have had a significant impact on the school's academic performance. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for F B Mccord Elementary School to provide a high-quality education for its students.
