Best Public Schools in Emden, IL

Summary:

Emden, Illinois is home to a single elementary school, Emden Elementary School, which serves grades K-5. As the sole provider of elementary education in the area, Emden Elementary plays a crucial role in the community, though its academic performance has room for improvement compared to the broader Hartsburg Emden CUSD 21 district and the state of Illinois.

Emden Elementary School has 90 students enrolled and a student-teacher ratio of 9:1, which could be a strength in providing individualized attention. However, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (26.8%) and Mathematics (31.7%) lag behind the district (32.1% and 26.9%) and state (41.2% and 28.4%) averages. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 41.11%, indicating significant economic challenges faced by the student population.

Despite these academic performance concerns, Emden Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 965 out of 2,067 Illinois elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 813 out of 2,077 in 2022-2023. This variability suggests that the school's performance may be influenced by various factors, and further analysis would be needed to understand the drivers of these changes. As the sole elementary school in Emden, the community's engagement and the school's ability to address the unique needs of its student population will be crucial in improving academic outcomes and providing a high-quality education for local families.
