Richland Elementary School consistently performs better than the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grades, with 48.4% of students proficient or better compared to the state's 41.2%.

The school's performance in Science is strong, with 56.2% of students proficient or better, exceeding the state average of 53.2%. Richland Elementary School has particularly strong performance among African American and Hispanic students, ranking in the top quartile of Illinois elementary schools for these subgroups in recent years. The school also performs well for English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the top 10% of Illinois elementary schools in this category.

Despite having a high percentage of low-socioeconomic status students, Richland Elementary School is able to outperform the state average in ELA and Science, suggesting effective strategies for supporting these students. Compared to nearby schools in the Joliet PSD 86 district, Richland Elementary School significantly outperforms its peers in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency. However, when compared to the higher-performing Plainfield School District 202, Richland Elementary School lags behind in overall student performance. The school's sharp increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.2% in 2019-2020 to 28.0% in 2023-2024, is a concerning trend that may impact student learning and achievement if not addressed effectively.

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.
