Summary:

Lennox School District 41-4 has two elementary schools, both serving prekindergarten through grade 4: Lennox Elementary - 02 and Worthing Elementary - 05. In 2025–26, both schools’ all-grade proficiency rates were above state rates in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics: ELA was about 59% at each school, versus 49% statewide, and math was 71% at Lennox and 68% at Worthing, versus 44% statewide. Mathematics is the clearest area-wide strength: the schools’ equal-weight average was 25 points above the state in math, compared with 10 points in ELA. The most important finding is that both schools remain ahead of the state overall, but that advantage has narrowed since the previous year.

The all-grade results show close competition, with Worthing edging Lennox in ELA by about 1 point, while Lennox led in math by 3 points. Grade-level results tell a less even story: Worthing led 3rd-grade ELA by 13 points, with both schools above the state rate, but Lennox led 4th-grade ELA by 15 points. Lennox’s 4th-grade result was 62%, above the 48% state rate; Worthing’s was 47%, just below it. Thus, Worthing’s 3rd-grade ELA result stands out, while its 4th-grade ELA result is the notable exception to the schools’ generally above-state results.

Both schools’ all-grade results fell from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA declined by 11 points at Lennox and 8 at Worthing, while math fell by 4 and 2 points, respectively. SchoolDigger gives both schools four stars; its latest rankings are 28th of 203 for Lennox and 42nd of 203 for Worthing. Its ranking percentiles have also fallen since 2023–24, from the 94th to 86th for Lennox and from the 97th to 79th for Worthing. As context, in 2024–25 Lennox had 362 students and a 16.8 student-teacher ratio, compared with 119 students and 18.1 at Worthing; free/reduced lunch eligible figures that year were 20% and 24%, respectively. These observations do not explain test results, and Worthing’s smaller enrollment means its grade-level percentages may reflect small student groups.
