Summary:
Olympia CUSD 16 is a school district in Illinois that serves one public high school, Olympia High School. The high school serves grades 9-12 and has a total enrollment of 503 students. While the school district is ranked 394 out of 813 in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, Olympia High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 269 out of 699 Illinois high schools in 2021-2022 to 341 out of 697 in 2023-2024.
The school faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.8% and proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts that are below the state averages on the SAT and ISA assessments. Additionally, over a third of the student population is eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating potential socioeconomic challenges that could impact student learning and achievement.
However, the school also has some positive metrics, such as a 92.3% four-year graduation rate and a science proficiency rate on the ISA assessment that is slightly above the state average. With a student-teacher ratio of 13.5 to 1, the school may have opportunities to address its areas of underperformance and support its students more effectively.
