Summary:
The 61011 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Caledonia Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 437 students. The school is part of the Belvidere CUSD 100 district, which is ranked 645 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Caledonia Elementary School outperforms its district in academic proficiency across all grade levels and subject areas, including English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. However, the school's proficiency rates still lag behind the state averages, indicating room for improvement in student achievement. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is a concern and may be a contributing factor to its lower performance compared to the state.
Despite its relatively stronger performance within the district, Caledonia Elementary School faces challenges, including a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (51.26%) and a need to address the chronic absenteeism issue. The school's per-student spending of $16,546 is higher than the state average, but it's unclear if this additional funding is being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. Overall, Caledonia Elementary School appears to be a relatively stronger-performing school within its district, but it still has room for improvement to reach state-level academic proficiency.
