Summary:
The 61448 zip code contains a single elementary school, Mable Woolsey Elementary School, which serves students in the Knoxville CUSD 202 district. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, its academic performance on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exam has been mixed, with strengths in certain subject areas and grade levels.
Mable Woolsey Elementary School's performance on the IAR exam has been variable, with the school outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) for all grades, 3rd grade, and 4th grade in 2024-2025, but only outperforming in 3rd grade Mathematics. In 2023-2024, the school's performance was below the district and state averages in both ELA and Mathematics for all grades. The school's per-student spending of $13,797 in 2023-2024 was higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 13.1 is lower than the state average, indicating relatively small class sizes.
Despite the school's declining statewide ranking, the data suggests that Mable Woolsey Elementary School has some academic strengths, particularly in ELA, and benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio. However, the school's performance in Mathematics and the overall downward trend in its statewide ranking warrant further investigation to identify areas for improvement and ensure that all students are receiving the support they need to succeed.
