Summary:
The Peru Education Service District 124 in Illinois is home to two schools: Northview Elementary School and Parkside Middle School. These schools serve students from elementary through middle school grades and provide a range of educational opportunities in the local community.
Parkside Middle School stands out for its strong performance in English Language Arts, with 48.4% of students proficient or better, exceeding the district and state averages. The school's 8th grade ELA proficiency rate of 53.2% is also higher than the district and state. In contrast, Northview Elementary School impresses with its math performance, with 46.1% of students proficient or better in math across all grades, significantly higher than the district and state averages.
Both schools have relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rates, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. This may be an area to explore further in terms of ensuring equitable access to resources and support. Additionally, Northview Elementary School has experienced some fluctuations in its statewide ranking, suggesting the need for further analysis to understand the factors contributing to this variability in performance.
