Summary:
The Edgar County CUD 6 district in Illinois consists of 3 schools serving grades K-12: Chrisman Elementary School, Chrisman High School, and Chrisman-Scottland Junior High School. The data reveals a district with some academic bright spots, but also significant challenges related to student performance, chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic factors.
Chrisman Elementary School stands out with relatively high 3rd grade proficiency rates in ELA and Math, but overall proficiency rates in those subjects are below district and state averages. Chrisman High School has a strong 4-year graduation rate, but low proficiency rates on the SAT. Chrisman-Scottland Junior High School shows promise in 6th grade ELA, but struggles in 7th and 8th grade ELA and Math.
Across the district, the schools face challenges related to chronic absenteeism, with rates as high as 23% at the elementary level. Additionally, the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients suggest significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting academic performance. While the district spends relatively high amounts per student, the data indicates the resources are not effectively translating into improved student outcomes. Addressing these issues may be key to enhancing the educational experience for students in the Edgar County CUD 6 district.
