Plainfield School District 202

Summary:

The Plainfield School District 202 in Illinois serves 29 schools, including 18 elementary schools, 7 middle schools, and 4 high schools. The district generally performs above the state average in academic metrics, but there is significant variation in performance across individual schools.

Several schools stand out in the district, including Plainfield North High School, which consistently ranks among the top high schools in Illinois, and Heritage Grove Middle School and Walkers Grove Elementary School, which are top performers at their respective levels. These standout schools have exceptional academic results, with high proficiency rates in standardized tests.

However, the data also reveals areas for improvement, such as addressing chronic absenteeism, which varies significantly across the schools. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and lower academic performance in some schools, underscoring the importance of addressing socioeconomic factors to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Plainfield School District 202.
