Oak Grove School

Summary:

Oak Grove School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Bartonville, Illinois, with 289 students. The school is part of the Oak Grove School District 68, which is ranked 395 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oak Grove School faces a mix of challenges and opportunities. The school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 6.0% in 2019-2020 to 21.8% in 2023-2024, which is notably higher than the state average of 41.2%. Academically, the school's test scores are generally below the state averages, particularly in mathematics, with only 27.6% of students proficient or better in IAR/Mathematics compared to the state average of 28.4%. However, the school performs better in science, with 56.6% of students proficient or better in ISA/Science compared to the state average of 53.2%. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with male students and low socioeconomic status students performing relatively well, but female students and white students struggling compared to their peers statewide.

When comparing Oak Grove School to nearby schools, some interesting patterns emerge. For example, Monroe Elementary School, which is only 1.77 miles away, significantly outperforms Oak Grove School across multiple metrics, including test scores, chronic absenteeism, and student-teacher ratio. This suggests that location alone does not determine a school's performance, and other factors, such as district leadership and resource allocation, may play a crucial role. Additionally, Oak Grove School's relatively high spending per student and student-teacher ratio indicate that the school may have adequate resources, but these resources may not be translating into improved academic outcomes, warranting further investigation into how these resources are being utilized and allocated.

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.
