Wood River-Hartford Education Service District 15


Summary:

The Wood River-Hartford Education Service District 15 in Illinois serves 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Lewis-Clark Elementary School and Hartford Elementary School) and 1 middle school (Lewis-Clark Junior High School). The district faces challenges, with all schools performing below state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and math proficiency.

Hartford Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer, exceeding district and state averages in ELA proficiency, particularly in 5th grade. However, the school struggles in math, with proficiency rates below the district and state. Lewis-Clark Elementary School performs slightly better than the district average in ELA and has relatively high science proficiency rates, but still falls short of state benchmarks.

Across the district, high rates of chronic absenteeism and free/reduced lunch eligibility indicate significant challenges faced by the student population. The district spends more per student than the state average, but the academic outcomes suggest more targeted interventions are needed to address the systemic underperformance, particularly in mathematics. Identifying and replicating the successful practices of the standout schools could provide a path forward for the district.
