Summary:
The Cobden Junior High School is the sole middle school located within the Cobden SUD 17 school district in Illinois. With a small student population of 93 students, the school appears to have adequate resources, including a low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average per-student spending.
Academically, Cobden Junior High School's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with strengths in 6th grade English Language Arts (ELA) and Science, but weaknesses in Mathematics and 7th/8th grade ELA compared to district and state averages. The school holds a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks between 434 and 652 out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools over the past 3 school years. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and curriculum improvements to address the academic disparities across grade levels.
While the school has a relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a potentially affluent student population, further investigation into the school's demographic composition and any potential equity issues would be warranted to ensure the school is effectively addressing the needs of all its students.
