George W Lieb Elementary School is a public elementary school in Bridgeview, Illinois, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Ridgeland School District 122.

The school has had a mixed performance, with its statewide ranking ranging from 742 to 1287 out of around 2,000 Illinois elementary schools over the past 10 years, and a SchoolDigger rating fluctuating between 2 and 3 stars out of 5. While the school's overall academic performance is slightly below the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, its 5th-grade students have performed better in ELA, and the school's Science scores are above average. George W Lieb Elementary School serves a diverse student population, with a significant percentage of Hispanic students and a high proportion of English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Interestingly, the school appears to be relatively effective in supporting the academic achievement of its Hispanic and ELL student populations, who perform significantly better than the overall school and district averages.

One area of concern for George W Lieb Elementary School is the significant increase in chronic absenteeism, which rose from 4.8% in 2019-2020 to 32.9% in 2021-2022 before declining to 22.3% 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.
