Summary:
Mannheim School District 83 in Illinois has only one middle school, Mannheim Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, ranking in the bottom half of Illinois middle schools and struggling to meet proficiency standards on standardized tests.
Mannheim Middle School's academic performance is a concern, with only 36.6% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 13.2% proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly lower than the state averages. The school's performance on the Illinois Science Assessment was slightly better, but still below the state average. Despite the district's higher-than-average spending of $17,809 per student, the school's academic outcomes remain poor, raising questions about the effectiveness of resource allocation.
Additionally, Mannheim Middle School faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.9% and serves a predominantly low-income population, with 66.03% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. These factors suggest the need for targeted interventions and strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the school and its community in order to improve educational outcomes for all students.
