South Adams Elementary School maintains consistent academic performance, with ILEARN proficiency rates remaining relatively stable over the past three years. However, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rates are generally lower than the state averages, while its math proficiency rates are above the state averages. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic need among the student population.
The school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low at 13.7, which may contribute to more individualized attention for students. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 11.8% is a metric to monitor, as high rates of chronic absenteeism can negatively impact academic achievement. Overall, South Adams Schools and its sole elementary school serve a predominantly white, rural community with a mix of academic strengths and areas for potential improvement.
