Summary:
The Panhandle CUSD 2 school district in Illinois is home to two elementary schools: Raymond Grade School and Farmersville Elementary School. While both schools serve students in the early grades, they exhibit notable differences in their academic performance, student demographics, and financial resources.
Raymond Grade School consistently ranks in the top half of Illinois elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Science proficiency, and maintains a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate. In contrast, Farmersville Elementary School has a lower 2-star rating and serves a higher percentage of students from low-income families, with a higher chronic absenteeism rate.
The financial resources available to the two schools also differ, with Raymond Grade School spending $16,920 per student, which is higher than the state average, while Farmersville Elementary School spends $14,134 per student, which is lower than the state average. These differences in academic performance, student demographics, and financial resources suggest that the schools within the Panhandle CUSD 2 district may face unique challenges and require tailored strategies to support the success of all students.
