Best Public Schools in Tamaroa, IL

Summary:

The city of Tamaroa, Illinois has only one public elementary school, Tamaroa Elementary School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 91 students. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is consistently below the Illinois state averages across all tested subjects and grade levels, and its statewide ranking has declined over the past few years.

Tamaroa Elementary School serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 70.33% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may contribute to the school's academic challenges. The school's per-student spending of $15,964 is higher than the state average, but its performance on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) and in 8th grade Science remains below state benchmarks.

The declining academic performance and school ranking of Tamaroa Elementary School suggest that the Tamaroa School District 5 may need to focus on improving instructional practices, providing targeted support for students, and addressing the unique needs of the school's low-income student population to help improve student outcomes and the school's overall performance.
