LeRoy Elementary School

Summary:

LeRoy Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 435 students in grades PK-6 in the town of LeRoy, Illinois, which is part of the LeRoy CUSD 2 district.

Academically, LeRoy Elementary's overall proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are slightly below the state averages but generally on par with or slightly better than the district averages. The school performs particularly well in Science, with 55.3% of students proficient or better, compared to 62.1% for the district and 53.2% for the state. However, the school's academic performance is generally lower than the higher-performing nearby schools like Grove Elementary, Northpoint Elementary, and Benjamin Elementary. The school's ranking among Illinois elementary schools has fluctuated, from a high of 485 out of 1,948 schools in 2020-2021 to a low of 807 out of 2,077 schools in 2022-2023.

One area of concern is the sharp increase in chronic absenteeism at LeRoy Elementary, from 4.8% in 2019-2020 to 16.9% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average of 14.8%. Additionally, the school faces performance gaps between white students and the state average, as well as between low-income students and their peers, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address these inequities. Overall, LeRoy Elementary has shown relatively stable academic performance, but addressing chronic absenteeism and subgroup disparities should be priorities for the school moving forward.

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.
