Andalusia Elementary School

Summary:

Andalusia Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Andalusia, Illinois, serving grades 3-5 with a total enrollment of 236 students. The school is part of the Rockridge CUSD 300 district, which is ranked 320 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Andalusia Elementary School faces some challenges, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics generally lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rate for all grades was 35.7%, compared to 43.6% for the district and 41.2% for the state. The school's performance in Mathematics is also below the district and state, with a 28.6% proficiency rate for all grades. However, the school's Science proficiency rate of 54.5% is higher than the state average of 53.2%, though lower than the district's 67.3%. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with female students generally performing better than male students, and white students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds having lower rankings compared to the state.

Interestingly, Andalusia Elementary School's performance is generally better than the nearby schools in the Rock Island School District 41, which have lower rankings and proficiency rates. However, the school's own ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 489 out of 2,093 Illinois elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 864 out of 2,067 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has increased significantly, from 0.4% in 2018-2019 to 15.0% in 2023-2024, which may be a contributing factor to the decline in academic performance.

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.
