Summary:

While Robert C Hill Elementary School has consistently ranked in the middle range of Illinois elementary schools, its academic performance, particularly in mathematics, is generally below the state and district averages. Only 28.4% of students were proficient or better in IAR Mathematics, compared to 28.1% for the district and 28.4% for the state. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 69.62% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.2% in the 2020-2021 school year to 25.5% in the 2022-2023 school year.

When compared to other nearby schools, Irene King Elementary School outperforms Robert C Hill Elementary School in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates. However, Robert C Hill Elementary School performs better than some other nearby schools, such as Bernard J Ward Elementary and Oak View Elementary, which have lower test scores and higher rates of chronic absenteeism. The school's increased per-student spending, from $15,106 in the 2019-2020 school year to $20,989 in the 2022-2023 school year, may have contributed to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.4 in the 2022-2023 school year.

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.
