Summary:
Homewood Flossmoor CHSD 233 is a single-school district in Illinois, serving high school students in the Homewood and Flossmoor communities. Homewood-Flossmoor High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past few years, currently ranking 305th out of 697 Illinois high schools. While the school boasts a high four-year graduation rate of 95.3% and a low dropout rate of 1.5%, its academic performance on standardized assessments, such as the SAT and ISA, has consistently lagged behind the state averages.
One area of concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.4%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This could be a contributing factor to the school's academic underperformance. Additionally, despite the school's higher per-student spending of $21,304 compared to the state average, its academic outcomes have not shown commensurate improvement, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to addressing the school's challenges.
Overall, Homewood Flossmoor CHSD 233 and its sole high school, Homewood-Flossmoor High School, face a mix of strengths and areas for improvement. While the school boasts a high graduation rate, its academic performance on standardized assessments and high chronic absenteeism rate suggest the need for further investigation and targeted interventions to address these challenges and improve student outcomes.
