About Greenview Elementary School

Greenview Elementary School serves 107 students across pre-kindergarten through fifth grade in Greenview, Illinois. Its 10.7:1 student-teacher ratio keeps classes small — a structural advantage that gives students more direct access to instruction than most Illinois elementary schools can provide. The school operates as a regular public school and earns a composite score of 9.3 out of 10, placing it firmly in Exceptional territory on MySchoolScout's rating scale.

The scores behind that rating are hard to ignore. Greenview Elementary posts a perfect 10.0 growth score, meaning students gain academic ground at a rate that outpaces peers who enter at similar levels. Its 8.5 academic score reflects strong absolute proficiency alongside that growth.

Together, those two measures push the school to #37 out of 2,326 elementary schools in Illinois — a top-2% standing that puts it ahead of 99% of all public schools statewide. Locally, Greenview Elementary holds the top spot among the two public schools serving the community. Across the full state, it ranks #42 out of 3,813 Illinois public schools — a result that's exceptional for any school, and especially rare for one enrolling just 107 students.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 107 students, Greenview Elementary School is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

Located in a rural area, Greenview Elementary School may involve longer commutes for some families. Rural schools often serve as community anchors and may have smaller class sizes, but parents should consider transportation logistics, after-school program availability, and access to specialized services.
