Summary:
The Illini Bluffs CUSD 327 district in Illinois consists of three schools: Illini Bluffs Elementary School, Illini Bluffs High School, and Illini Bluffs Middle School. The district's performance is mixed, with Illini Bluffs High School standing out as the top-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Illinois high schools and outperforming the state averages on standardized tests.
Illini Bluffs Elementary School and Illini Bluffs Middle School have more mixed performance, with the elementary school showing signs of improvement but still underperforming the state averages in core subject areas, and the middle school struggling with low proficiency rates in Mathematics. The district's relatively high spending per student and lower free and reduced lunch rates suggest a relatively higher socioeconomic status of the student population, which may contribute to the overall performance of the schools.
The district's chronic absenteeism rates are higher than the state average, indicating a potential area for improvement that could positively impact student outcomes. However, the district's strong performance in science proficiency, as measured by the ISA exam, is a notable bright spot and an area that could be further leveraged to drive overall academic success.
