Summary:
The Central A & M CUD 21 district in Illinois encompasses 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district faces some academic challenges, one school, Gregory Intermediate, stands out as a relative bright spot with strong performance on state assessments and low chronic absenteeism.
The data reveals significant disparities in academic achievement across the district. Central A & M High School students perform well below the state average on the SAT, with only 4.2% proficient in Math and 20.8% in ELA. Similarly, the middle and elementary schools lag behind state averages in English and Math proficiency on the IAR assessments. However, Central A & M Middle School stands out with strong science proficiency, suggesting potential areas for improvement.
Across the district, high rates of economic disadvantage, as indicated by the large percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, likely contribute to the academic challenges faced by the schools. Targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address these issues and improve outcomes for all students in the Central A & M CUD 21 district.
