Summary:
The 62330 zip code is home to a single public school, Dallas City Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 169 students. The school is part of the Dallas Education Service District 327.
While Dallas City Elementary School performs well in science proficiency, its English Language Arts (ELA) and math proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.3% is also higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has dropped from 841 out of 2,082 Illinois elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,161 out of 2,067 in 2023-2024, indicating a decline in performance over time.
Despite the lower academic performance, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.9 and higher spending per student of $15,461 compared to the state average. However, the high free/reduced lunch rate of 73.37% suggests that the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, which may present unique challenges and require targeted support.
