Best High Schools in Leland, IL

Summary:

The city of Leland, Illinois is home to a single public high school, Leland High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 68 students. While the school's small size and low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 suggest a potentially personalized learning environment, the data reveals several areas of concern regarding the school's academic performance and overall standing.

Leland CUSD 1, the district that Leland High School is a part of, is ranked 525 out of 813 districts in Illinois and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. Leland High School itself is ranked 475 out of 697 Illinois high schools, with a similar 2-star rating. The school's academic performance, as measured by SAT proficiency rates, is significantly lower than the state averages in both Mathematics (5% proficient vs. 26.1% state average) and English Language Arts (20% proficient vs. 31.1% state average), indicating that students may be struggling to meet academic standards.

Additionally, Leland High School faces challenges with chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 21.6% for the 2023-2024 school year. This high rate of chronic absenteeism can negatively impact student learning and academic achievement. The school also serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, with 41.18% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's per-student spending of $21,724 is relatively high, the academic outcomes do not reflect this investment, suggesting that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address these challenges and improve educational outcomes for its students.
