Frohardt Elementary School

Summary:

Frohardt Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Granite City, Illinois, serving grades 3-4 with a total enrollment of 406 students. The school is part of the Granite City CUSD 9 district, which is ranked 771 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Frohardt Elementary School consistently performs below the state and district averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 13.2% of students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 16.8% in the Granite City CUSD 9 district and 41.2% statewide. Similarly, only 12.7% of students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 8.1% in the district and 28.4% statewide. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 39.5% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is substantially higher than the state average.

In contrast, nearby schools outside of the Granite City CUSD 9 district, such as Kreitner Elementary in the Collinsville CUSD 10 district and James Avant Elementary in the East St. Louis School District 189, demonstrate higher academic achievement, lower chronic absenteeism, and better rankings compared to Frohardt Elementary School. This highlights the potential impact of district-level factors on school performance and the need for a comprehensive, district-wide approach to address the challenges faced by Frohardt Elementary School and other schools in the Granite City CUSD 9 district.

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.
