Princeville Elementary School's academic performance is generally higher than the state average but lower than the district average.

In Math, 46.5% of students were proficient or better, compared to 58.2% for the district and 38.5% for the state. The school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate was 52.3%, higher than the state's 40.6%. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is relatively high, which could be a contributing factor to its academic performance being lower than the district average.
The school's per-student spending of $14,332 is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 11.4 to 1 is relatively low, which could be positive factors. However, without any other schools in the 61559 zip code to compare to, it is difficult to determine how Princeville Elementary School performs relative to its local peers. Expanding the analysis to include schools in neighboring zip codes or the broader district could provide more context for evaluating the school's performance.
