Summary

Robert Crown School is a K–5 school in Wauconda, Illinois, with 776 students. Its 2025–2026 results are above state and district proficiency rates in both tested subjects. The clearest concern within the school is fifth-grade math: proficiency falls from 69% in third grade to 44% in fifth, even though fifth grade remains above state and district rates. The most important overall finding is that Robert Crown is notably stronger than state and district averages, especially in math.

Compared with nearby schools, Robert Crown is solid but not a local leader in all-grades scores: it ranks sixth of eight schools with results in both ELA and math. Its 67% ELA proficiency is 3 points below the nearby-school average of 70%, and its 55% math rate is 4 points below the average of 58%. It does lead its two same-district neighbors, Cotton Creek School and Wauconda Grade School, in both subjects. However, Spencer Loomis Elementary School is much higher, at 90% in ELA and 81% in math. Statewide, Robert Crown is ahead of Wauconda CUSD 118 by 8 points in ELA and 13 in math, and ahead of Illinois by 10 and 15 points, respectively. Nearby schools serve different grade spans, so those comparisons are not perfectly matched.

Results have improved over the three years of available data, though math dipped in the latest year: ELA rose from 49% in 2023–2024 to 67% in 2025–2026, while math increased overall from 44% to 55% after falling from 57% in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger gives the school 4 stars and ranks it 497 of 1,737 Illinois schools, at the 71st percentile; that percentile is down from 80 in 2023–2024. Its student-teacher ratio is 11.6, and 24% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well it serves low-socioeconomic-status students also declined, from the 92nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 57th in 2025–2026.
