Middle Schools in Central School District 104


Summary:

Central School District 104 contains only one middle school, Joseph Arthur Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Based on the available data, Joseph Arthur Middle School is performing below average compared to other middle schools in Illinois, with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, as well as a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate.

Joseph Arthur Middle School has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and is ranked 842 out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year. The school's ELA proficiency rate of 27.8% and math proficiency rate of 17.6% are significantly lower than the state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. Additionally, the school's science proficiency rate of 50% is slightly below the state average of 53.2%. These low academic performance metrics suggest that the school may be facing challenges in providing a high-quality education for its students.

Further analysis reveals that 53.85% of Joseph Arthur Middle School's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's per-student spending of $12,498 is slightly higher than the state average, but this does not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes. The school's low performance and high chronic absenteeism rate of 21% suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors contributing to the school's underperformance.
