Summary

Tremont Elementary School serves 304 students in prekindergarten through grade 4 in Tremont, Illinois, and is part of Tremont CUSD 702. Its 2025–26 all-grades results were above state averages, but that summary hides a major difference by grade: third graders were below state proficiency in both subjects, while fourth graders were well above it. Third-grade ELA and math were both 44%; fourth-grade ELA was 76% and math was 50%. The clearest takeaway for families is that third grade is a relative weak spot alongside notably stronger fourth-grade results.

Compared with state and district results, the school was stronger in math: its 2025–26 proficiency was 47% in math and 62% in ELA, respectively 8 and 5 percentage points above state results. Both were below district results, but the gaps were smaller in math: 1 point, compared with 8 points in ELA. Nearby comparisons are mixed. ELA was about 1 point above the nearby-school average and ranked sixth among 10 schools with reported results; math was 8 points below the nearby average and ranked sixth among the eight schools with reported figures. At grade 4, Tremont’s ELA result was below Jefferson Elementary School and Grundy Elementary School, but above Lincoln Elementary School; its grade 3 results were below most nearby schools with reported figures.

Scores rose over 2023–24 to 2025–26 overall, but fell in the latest year: ELA increased 10 points over the period, then dropped 7; math increased 13 points, then fell 8. SchoolDigger rated the school 3 stars and placed it at the 52nd statewide percentile in 2025–26, down 22 percentile points from the prior year. Its student–teacher ratio was 15.9 in 2024–25, compared with a nearby average of 14.5. The school reported 25% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, the third-lowest share among the 11 schools compared. SchoolDigger’s group rankings also varied: in 2024–25, its effectiveness ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students was at the 93rd percentile, versus 74th overall; in 2025–26, its ranking for White Students was at the 25th percentile, versus 52nd overall.
