Summary:
The 62531 zip code area has only one elementary school, Edinburg Elementary School, which serves students in the Edinburg CUSD 4 district. With just 102 students, the school is struggling academically, with test scores well below state averages, particularly in 3rd grade. The school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which may be contributing to its academic challenges.
Edinburg Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 1295 out of 2077 Illinois elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 1628 out of 2067 in 2023-2024. The school's district, Edinburg CUSD 4, is ranked 620 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.7 and higher spending per student of $14,535, the school is not performing well compared to other Illinois elementary schools.
The high percentage of students (62.75%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates a high level of economic disadvantage in the school's student population. This, combined with the school's academic struggles, suggests that Edinburg Elementary School could benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and engagement.
