Summary:

Jasper Elementary consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency. In the 2023-2024 school year, 66.4% of Jasper students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 41.2%. In Mathematics, 44.9% of Jasper students were proficient, versus the state average of 28.4%. The school also excels in Science, with 65.8% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the state's 53.2%. Jasper Elementary has ranked in the top 25-30% of Illinois elementary schools for several years, and its strong performance extends across different student subgroups.

While Jasper Elementary's academic achievements are impressive, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, from 2.3% in 2019-2020 to 19.3% in 2020-2021. This is an area the school and district should address. Interestingly, Jasper Elementary outperforms many nearby schools, such as Clay City Elementary, which has lower proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics. Jasper's strong performance may be linked to its relatively low percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, at 25.71% receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

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.
