Best Public Schools in Shabbona, IL


Summary:

The city of Shabbona, Illinois is home to two schools - Indian Creek High School and Indian Creek Elementary School, both part of the Indian Creek CUSD 425 district. While the elementary school maintains a strong statewide ranking, the high school has seen a concerning decline in its performance compared to other Illinois high schools in recent years.

Indian Creek High School has a 94.1% four-year graduation rate, but its test scores, particularly in math, lag behind state averages. The school's statewide ranking has dropped from 254th out of 699 Illinois high schools in 2022-2023 to 370th out of 697 in 2023-2024, indicating a potential downward trend. In contrast, Indian Creek Elementary School has maintained a relatively strong statewide ranking, placing in the top third of Illinois elementary schools in recent years.

Both schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 27.3% at the high school and 24.5% at the elementary school. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and resources to support these students and help close achievement gaps. Additionally, the higher spending per student at the high school level compared to the elementary school may indicate a need to re-evaluate resource allocation and ensure equitable distribution of funding across grade levels.
