Summary:
The city of Leland, Illinois is home to two schools: Leland Elementary School and Leland High School, both part of the Leland CUSD 1 district. While Leland Elementary School has shown mixed performance on standardized tests, with some grade levels performing above the state average in ELA and Math, the school's science proficiency rates are consistently higher than the state average. In contrast, Leland High School faces more significant challenges, with low SAT scores and a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Leland Elementary School has 173 students, while Leland High School has 68 students. Both schools have a similar free and reduced-price lunch rate of around 41%. Leland Elementary School spends $16,555 per student and has a student-teacher ratio of 12.3, while Leland High School spends $21,724 per student and has a ratio of 8.5.
The data suggests that while Leland Elementary School has some areas of strength, such as its science proficiency rates, the district as a whole may need to address issues of inconsistent academic performance and low college readiness, as evidenced by Leland High School's poor SAT scores. Addressing chronic absenteeism at the high school level may also be a priority for the district to ensure all students in Leland receive a high-quality education.
