Hunt Club Elementary

Summary:

Hunt Club Elementary is a public elementary school in Oswego, Illinois, serving 411 students in grades K-5 as part of the Cusd 308 district.

While the school's science proficiency rates are higher than the district and state averages, its performance in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics is generally lower across all grade levels. For example, the school's ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates for all grades are 32.1% and 29.8%, respectively, compared to the district's 45% and 32.2%, and the state's 41.2% and 28.4%. The school's 5th-grade performance is particularly concerning, with ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates of 38.1% and 22.3%, compared to the district's 45.1% and 28.9%, and the state's 39.1% and 26.8%. Additionally, the school's ranking for Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students is lower than for their peers, indicating the need for targeted interventions.

Another area of concern is the school's increasing chronic absenteeism rate, which has risen from 2.3% in 2019-2020 to 12.6% in 2023-2024, higher than the district's 12.3% in 2021-2022. While the school's per-student spending has increased, and the student-teacher ratio has fluctuated, the continued academic challenges suggest the need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation. Compared to nearby schools like Bristol Grade School and Circle Center Grade School, Hunt Club Elementary's performance is an area of concern that the school and district should prioritize addressing.

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.
