Marseilles Education Service District 150


Summary:

The Marseilles Education Service District 150 in Illinois has only one school, Marseilles Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, ranking in the bottom quarter of Illinois elementary schools over the past three years.

Marseilles Elementary School has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts (14.9% vs. 41.2% state average), Math (14.1% vs. 28.4% state average), and Science (44% vs. 53.2% state average). The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8% and a high percentage (64.11%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-needs population.

Despite the school's low performance, the district is spending $14,759 per student, which is higher than the state average. This suggests that the issue may not be solely a matter of funding, but rather the effective allocation and utilization of resources. Additionally, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.1 could indicate challenges in attracting and retaining high-quality teachers, which may be contributing to the school's struggles.
