Princeville Elementary School

Summary:

Princeville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 318 students in grades PK-5 in Princeville, Illinois, which is part of the Princeville CUSD 326 district. While the school's science proficiency rates are significantly higher than the district and state averages, its English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency rates are generally lower.

Princeville Elementary School's performance varies across different student subgroups, with stronger outcomes for female students compared to male students, and weaker outcomes for White students and students with disabilities. The school has also seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 6.0% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, these factors do not appear to be driving stronger academic performance.

Compared to the nearby high-performing schools in the Dunlap CUSD 323 district, Princeville Elementary School's performance is generally lower, particularly in ELA and Mathematics. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its curriculum, teaching quality, and overall school leadership to better support student learning and achievement.

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.
