Summary:

Indian Prairie Elementary School is a public elementary school in Crystal Lake, Illinois, serving 504 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Crystal Lake CCSD 47 district, which is ranked 393 out of 813 school districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Indian Prairie Elementary School has generally performed on par with or slightly above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, but it stands out for its stronger performance in Science, with 59.2% of students proficient or better, compared to 62.7% for the district and 53.2% for the state. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 3.6% in 2019-2020 to 20.2% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the district average of 16.6%. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students and students with disabilities tending to perform better than their peers, while female students and white students have lower rankings compared to their counterparts in the state.

When compared to other nearby schools within the same district, Indian Prairie Elementary School generally performs better than Coventry Elementary School and Canterbury Elementary School in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, but it lags behind the higher-performing South Elementary School and Glacier Ridge Elementary School. The school's higher spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratio suggest that it is investing resources in its educational program, but the impact on student outcomes may be mixed.

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.
