Best Public Schools in Robbins, IL

Summary:

The city of Robbins, Illinois is home to two schools - Kellar School, a middle school, and Childs Elementary School. Both schools serve students from the Posen-Robbins Education Service District 143-5 and face significant academic and attendance challenges.

Neither Kellar School nor Childs Elementary appear to be standout performers, with both schools reporting proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that are well below state averages. Kellar School's proficiency rates range from 28-38% in ELA and just 7-14% in Math, while Childs Elementary's 3rd grade proficiency is 25% in ELA and 22.2% in Math. Chronic absenteeism is also an issue, with Kellar School reporting a rate of 15.1% compared to the state average of 14%.

Despite the low academic performance, the schools in Robbins spend more per student than the state average, at $18,401 for Kellar School and $19,942 for Childs Elementary. This suggests that additional funding alone may not be the solution, and that other factors like instructional quality, family engagement, and social-emotional support may need to be addressed. Overall, the data indicates that the schools in Robbins face significant challenges in improving student outcomes and engagement.
