Summary:

The 62952 zip code is home to a single standout public elementary school, Jonesboro Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 325 students. The school is part of the County of Union School District No43, a high-performing district ranked 118th out of 811 in Illinois with a 4-star rating.

Jonesboro Elementary School is a consistently high-performing institution, with proficiency rates on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exams that significantly outpace both district and state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. For instance, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school had a 79.3% proficiency rate in English Language Arts and a 58.1% proficiency rate in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 53.1% and 38.5%, respectively. The school's academic excellence is further reflected in its statewide ranking, placing 424th out of 2,056 schools in the 2024-2025 school year and 267th out of 2,067 schools in the 2023-2024 school year.

While Jonesboro Elementary School serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 50.77% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's strong academic performance suggests it is effectively supporting these students. The school's relatively high spending per student ($16,369) and low student-teacher ratio (12:1) in the 2023-2024 school year may contribute to its success, though the chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year is a metric to monitor. Overall, Jonesboro Elementary School stands out as a model of academic excellence and resource allocation in the 62952 zip code.
