Elverado Intermediate School

Summary:

Elverado Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Vergennes, Illinois, with 82 students. The school is part of the Elverado CUSD 196 district, which is ranked 465 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Elverado Intermediate School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from 577 out of 2,082 Illinois elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,068 out of 2,067 in 2023-2024, with a corresponding drop in its SchoolDigger rating from 4 stars to 2 stars.

Elverado Intermediate School's test scores are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 25.3% of students proficient or better in ELA and Math in 2023-2024, compared to 41.2% and 28.4% statewide, respectively. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 24.7% in 2023-2024, significantly above the state average. While the school serves a high proportion of low-socioeconomic status students, with 74.39% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, its performance on the ELA and Math assessments for this subgroup is stronger than the overall school, ranking 276 out of 1,763 Illinois elementary schools in 2021-2022.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Thomas Elementary, Parrish Elementary, and Elverado Primary School, Elverado Intermediate School's performance is generally lower. Additionally, the school's higher per-student spending of $15,528 in 2022-2023 does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for Elverado Intermediate School to improve its academic performance and provide a high-quality education for its students.

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.
