Summary:
Edgar County CUD 6 district in Illinois contains only one elementary school, Chrisman Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 129 students. While the school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the district and state averages, it has some areas of strength and others that need improvement.
Chrisman Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (22.7%) are significantly lower than the district (27%) and state (41.2%) averages, but its Mathematics proficiency rates (29.5%) are higher than the district average (18.9%) though still lower than the state average (28.4%). The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.0% is also higher than the state average, which could be a contributing factor to its academic challenges. Additionally, over a third of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's performance.
Despite the school's academic struggles, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.2 to 1 and a per-student spending of $12,148, which is higher than the state average. This suggests that resources may not be the primary factor in the school's performance, and further analysis of the school's strategies and resource allocation could provide insights into how to address its academic challenges and improve student outcomes.
