Summary

Silver Creek Elementary serves 757 students in PK–5 in Troy, Illinois, as part of Triad CUSD 2. Its latest results show a clear split: in 2025–26, students’ proficiency was above the state average in both English language arts (ELA) and math, but below the district and the nearby Triad schools with similar grade spans. ELA proficiency was 62%, versus 56% statewide and 69% in the district; math was 47%, versus 40% statewide and 53% in the district. The most important takeaway is that Silver Creek is outperforming the state, but its closest district peers currently post stronger all-grades results.

Fifth-grade science is another strength against the state, though not against nearby schools: Silver Creek’s 60% proficiency was 13 percentage points above the state, but 5 points below the district and 6 points below the average of five nearby schools. Grade-level results are uneven, too. Fourth- and fifth-grade ELA were 71% and 68%, respectively, both well above state averages; third-grade ELA was 48%, nearly level with the state, while third-grade math at 48% was just below it. Nearby comparisons are less favorable: C A Henning School and St Jacob Elementary School both had higher ELA results than Silver Creek, and Marine Elementary School also had higher math results. Marine’s third-grade scores were not reported.

Results have improved over the longer term but declined in the latest year: since 2023–24, ELA rose 19 percentage points and math rose 11, while from 2024–25 to 2025–26 ELA fell 4 points and math fell 9. SchoolDigger placed Silver Creek at the 59th percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, down from the 78th percentile and 4 stars the year before. Its statewide ranking for White students was notably lower than its overall standing: the group ranked at the 30th percentile (rank 810 of 1,149; 1 star), compared with the school’s overall 59th percentile. For context, the student-teacher ratio was 16.2 in 2024–25, and 18% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, within the nearby Triad schools’ range of 16.8%–18.6%.
