Summary:

Gardner Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Gardner, Illinois, with 148 students. The school is part of the Gardner CCSD 72C district, which is ranked 342 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gardner Elementary School faces several challenges, including low test scores, with only 43% of students proficient or better in ELA and 31.4% in math, compared to state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.3% to 35.2% over the past few years, generally higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of low-socioeconomic status students, ranking in the top 5% of Illinois elementary schools in this metric for the 2017-2018 school year, which could be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance.

When compared to nearby schools, such as L.J. Stevens Intermediate School in Wilmington, Gardner Elementary generally underperforms in both ELA and math proficiency rates. Despite spending significantly more per student ($17,941 in 2022-2023) compared to the state average and many of the nearby schools, this does not seem to translate into higher academic achievement. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 10.2 also does not appear to be a key driver of its academic performance.

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.
