Bloomington School District 87


Summary:

The Bloomington School District 87 in Illinois consists of 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 687 out of 813 in Illinois and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger. However, the performance of individual schools within the district varies significantly.

Washington Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 642 out of 2,067 Illinois elementary schools. It has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, several other elementary schools, such as Sheridan, Bent, and Irving, have very low proficiency rates, often less than half the state averages.

At the secondary level, Bloomington High School and Bloomington Junior High School both struggle, with lower proficiency rates and higher chronic absenteeism compared to the elementary schools. This suggests potential challenges at the secondary level within the district. Additionally, the district as a whole could benefit from addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates, particularly at the high school and some of the lower-performing elementary schools.
