Summary:
The 61377 zip code has only one school, Fieldcrest Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. This school has seen fluctuations in its performance over the past three years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 367 to 570 out of 1,363 to 1,369 Illinois middle schools. Its performance rating has also varied, from 4 stars out of 5 to 3 stars out of 5 on the SchoolDigger scale.
Despite these fluctuations, Fieldcrest Middle School has strengths in core subject areas, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science that are above the district and state averages. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. However, the school also has a high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 55.9%, suggesting that the student population may come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Overall, Fieldcrest CUSD 6 has one middle school that has shown both strengths and areas for improvement in its performance. While the limited data set prevents a more comprehensive comparison, the findings highlight the need to further investigate the underlying factors that contribute to the school's fluctuating performance and address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
