Webster Elementary has faced several challenges in recent years. The school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 6.1% in 2018-2019 to 27.5% in 2023-2024, which is notably higher than the district average of 23.4% and the state average of 17.6%. Academically, Webster Elementary's performance on the IAR assessments is consistently lower than the district and state averages, with only 35.8% of students proficient or better in ELA and 25.3% in Math in 2023-2024. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students ranking higher than female students, and White students, Special Education students, and students with low socioeconomic status lagging behind the state and district averages.

Despite the higher spending per student at Webster Elementary, which has increased from $11,449 in 2019-2020 to $18,359 in 2022-2023, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 835 out of 2,086 Illinois elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 935 out of 2,067 in 2023-2024. When compared to other elementary schools in the Collinsville CUSD 10 district, such as Maryville Elementary School, which ranked 168 out of 2,067 Illinois elementary schools in 2023-2024, Webster Elementary generally underperforms. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach to improve student outcomes at Webster Elementary.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
