School Choice

As a result of the No Child Left Behind Act, students attending Lincoln and Washington Elementary Schools have the option to transfer to another school within the district.  This is an option because the schools did not make adequate yearly progress on state tests for at least two years.  With a combined enrollment of 1,436 students, a total of 29 students have requested transfers to other elementary buildings.  Students whose families meet income limits under the law may also receive free tutoring.  To learn more about school choice options and tutoring opportunities, please click the School Choice Information folder below.

Historical Data:  2009-2010 was the first year students at Lincoln and Washington Elementary Schools had the option to transfer to either Kishwaukee or Perry Elementary Schools.  Of the 1,724 students, 4 exercised this option.

With regard to Supplemental Educational Services (tutoring), 2010-2011 is the first year of student eligibility.  Of the 822 student families who meet the income limits under the law, 175 have elected to receive tutoring.  A list of approved providers and locations of services can be found in the Student Choice Information folder below.
