Rolling Green

Summary:

Rolling Green is an elementary school in Rockford, Illinois, serving 486 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. It is part of the Rockford School District 205, which has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger and is ranked 737 out of 813 school districts in Illinois.

Rolling Green has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade. The school struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 34.7% to 65.2%, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Academically, Rolling Green's performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics is consistently lower than the state and district averages, with only 20.3% and 11.9% of students, respectively, being proficient or better in these subjects. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White and Multi-racial students performing particularly poorly compared to their African American and Hispanic peers.

Despite relatively high spending per student at $19,109, compared to the district average of $14,384 to $16,059 for nearby schools like Constance Lane Elementary School, Cherry Valley Elementary School, and Montessori Elementary School, Rolling Green's academic performance remains low. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution, and the school may need to examine how resources are being allocated and utilized to drive better student outcomes.

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.
