Summary:
The only school in the 60449 zip code is Monee Elementary School, a public elementary school serving grades K-5 with 397 students. The school is part of the Crete Monee CUSD 201U district, which is ranked 701 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Monee Elementary School is facing significant challenges in improving student academic achievement. The school's English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates are well below the state averages across all grade levels, with only 25.2% of students proficient or better in ELA and 17.6% proficient or better in Math. Additionally, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 31.0%, which is much higher than the state average. The school's student population is predominantly from low-income families, with a 99.24% free/reduced lunch rate.
Despite the school's relatively high spending of $17,685 per student and a reasonable student-teacher ratio of 15.8, these factors do not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes. This suggests a need for the school and district to evaluate the effectiveness of their resource allocation and implement targeted interventions to address the challenges faced by Monee Elementary School.
