Summary:

The zip code 62690 is home to a single elementary school, North Mac Elementary, which serves grades PK-2 with a total enrollment of 343 students. The school is part of the North Mac CUSD 34 district, which is ranked 678 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

North Mac Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, going from 964 out of 2,093 Illinois elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1,077 out of 2,166 in 2011-2012, with a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% for the 2024-2025 school year, and a significant portion of the student population, 49.56%, receives free or reduced-price lunch for the 2023-2024 school year. However, the school's per-student spending for the 2023-2024 school year is $16,578, which is above the state average, and it has a student-teacher ratio of 14.9 for the 2023-2024 school year.

The analysis of North Mac Elementary reveals some areas of concern, such as the declining statewide ranking and high chronic absenteeism, as well as potential strengths, such as the relatively high per-student spending and smaller class sizes. Further investigation into the school's academic performance, resource allocation, and strategies to address the socioeconomic challenges of its student population would be valuable to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the school's performance and opportunities for improvement.
