Nauvoo Elementary School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 13.9% to 30.5%, which are significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like La Harpe Elementary (10.8%) and Carthage Primary (9.2%). Academically, the school's performance, as measured by proficiency rates on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exams, is generally below state and district averages, with only 24.6% of students proficient or better in ELA and 14.2% in math, compared to state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. Nauvoo Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools, with a ranking of 1108 out of 2067 schools in 2023-2024.

While Nauvoo Elementary School's performance is generally below state and district averages, some nearby schools, such as La Harpe Elementary and Hamilton Elementary, demonstrate stronger academic outcomes. Additionally, Nauvoo Elementary School's per-student spending has increased in recent years, from $11,248 in 2019-2020 to $19,565 in 2022-2023, but this increased funding has not yet resulted in significant improvements in academic performance, indicating that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and instructional strategies.

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.
