State of Illinois Report Cards for Indian Prairie School District 204 and each of its schools are now available on the district's web site at ipsdweb.ipsd.org/Subpage.aspx/SchoolReportCards
The information reported shows our students continue to perform well above State averages.
As a district, 92 percent of our students met or exceeded State standards on the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) for the combined reading, math and science tests.
Other highlights include math achievement scores of 95 percent for elementary and 94 percent for middle school students. In reading, our elementary and middle school scores hovered around 90 percent of students meeting or exceeding standards.
Science is another area where our students showed tremendous achievement. Ninety-three percent of fourth graders met or exceeded standards and the score was 92 percent for seventh graders.
In addition to test scores, the report card includes comparison information on finances.
Indian Prairie continues to operate in a highly cost efficient manner. Student achievement is high, but district expenditures remain low. The district's average operating expense of $8,639 per pupil remains below the state average of $9,488.
The average teacher salary of $62,073 is slightly higher than the state average of $58,275. The report card also shows the average administrator salary of $101,958 is slightly lower than the state average of $102,310.
Indian Prairie also operates with fewer administrators than the average district. According to the report card, most districts have one administrator for every 231 students. The ratio in Indian Prairie is one administrator for every 386 students.
