Summary

Enos Elementary School is a public elementary school in Springfield, Illinois, serving 196 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Springfield School District 186, which is ranked 714 out of 811 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Enos Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state on standardized tests, with only 32.1% of students proficient or better in ELA and 12.1% proficient in math, far below the state averages. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 41.6% in recent years. Additionally, Enos has a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 71.78% to 76.6% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When comparing Enos Elementary to other nearby schools in the district, such as Iles Elementary, which consistently ranks in the top 50 elementary schools in Illinois, the performance gap becomes even more apparent. While Enos spends significantly more per student than the state average, this does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of this school community.
