Haskell Elementary School

Summary:

Haskell Elementary School is a public elementary school in Rockford, Illinois, serving 278 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Rockford School District 205, which has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Haskell Elementary School has shown significant improvement in its academic performance, with its statewide ranking improving from 2059 out of 2086 Illinois elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 571 out of 2067 in 2023-2024, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school outperformed the district and the state in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels, particularly for its African American and low socioeconomic status student subgroups, which rank in the top 5% and top 10% of Illinois elementary schools, respectively. The school has also seen a substantial decrease in its chronic absenteeism rate, from 53.1% in 2021-2022 to 14.6% in 2023-2024, and an increase in its per-student spending, from $15,910 in 2019-2020 to $19,834 in 2022-2023.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Constance Lane Elementary School and Galapagos Rockford Charter School, Haskell Elementary School outperforms them in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, has lower chronic absenteeism rates, and higher per-student spending. This suggests that Haskell Elementary School is effectively addressing the needs of its students, particularly its African American and low-SES subgroups, and providing them with the support and resources they need to succeed academically.

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.
