Best Public Schools in Mc Nabb, IL


Summary:

The city of McNabb, Illinois has only one public middle school, Putnam County Junior High School, which serves grades 6-8 and has an enrollment of 162 students. While the school has a favorable student-teacher ratio, it faces declining performance, with its statewide ranking dropping from 578 out of 1,369 Illinois middle schools in 2021-2022 to 731 out of 1,363 in 2023-2024. The school's SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 3 stars to 2 stars over the same period.

Putnam County Junior High School's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics below the district and state averages across all grade levels. However, the school's Science proficiency rate of 67.3% is higher than both the district (63.4%) and state (53.2%) averages. The school also faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 23.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, well above the state average.

Socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the school's challenges, as 43.83% of its students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. The school's spending per student of $15,995 is higher than the state average, suggesting the need for additional resources to support its students. Despite these challenges, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.1 to 1 could be a positive factor, potentially allowing for more individualized attention and support for students.
