Summary

St George Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Bourbonnais, Illinois, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 386 students. The school is part of the St George CCSD 258 district, which is ranked 209 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

St George Elementary School consistently performs above the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. For the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 63.7% compared to the state average of 53.1%, and its Mathematics proficiency rate was 54.9% compared to the state average of 38.5%. The school's performance is particularly noteworthy in 3rd grade ELA (59% proficient vs. 47.3% state average) and 3rd grade Mathematics (84.6% proficient vs. 49.6% state average), indicating a strong foundation for students in the early grades. Additionally, the school has demonstrated consistent high performance across various student subgroups, including female students, male students, African American students, and students with special education needs.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Shabbona Elementary School, Noel Levasseur Elementary School, and King Middle Grade School, St George Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, with significantly higher academic proficiency rates in both ELA and Mathematics. However, the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 13.2% to 26.3% over the past few years, is an area of concern that the school and district may need to address to ensure consistent student attendance and engagement.
