Summary

Stewardson-Strasburg Elementary School is a public school serving grades PK-8 in Strasburg, Illinois, with 274 students. The school is part of the Stewardson-Strasburg CUD 5A district, which is ranked 250 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stewardson-Strasburg Elementary School has consistently demonstrated strong academic performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (62.7%) and Mathematics (50.8%) significantly higher than the state averages (53.1% and 38.5%, respectively) in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance on the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA) was also impressive, with 5th-grade students scoring 71% proficient or better, compared to the state average of 40.6%. Compared to nearby schools, Stewardson-Strasburg Elementary outperformed Neoga Elementary School (54.8% ELA, 41.3% Math) and Windsor Elementary School (46.5% ELA, 39.4% Math) in the 2024-2025 school year.

However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 6.6% in the 2022-2023 school year to 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year, which is now higher than the state average. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6 and per-student spending of $9,670 in the 2023-2024 school year suggest the school is efficiently allocating its resources. Overall, Stewardson-Strasburg Elementary School is a high-performing school that is providing a quality education to its students, but the increase in chronic absenteeism is a concerning trend that the school and district should address.
