Riverside-Brookfield Township School District 208 is home to a single high school, Riverside Brookfield Township High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. This standout school is ranked in the top 12% of Illinois high schools and has maintained a strong 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years, indicating its consistent high performance.
Riverside Brookfield Township High School boasts impressive academic achievements, with students outperforming state averages in standardized tests for SAT Math (39.5% proficient or better), SAT ELA (41.2% proficient or better), and ISA Science (65.7% proficient or better). The school also has a low dropout rate of 0.8% and a high 4-year graduation rate of 94.9%, both of which are better than state averages. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.9 is lower than the state average, suggesting smaller class sizes and more personalized attention for students.
While Riverside Brookfield Township High School's overall performance is commendable, the data also reveals an area for potential improvement: the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.9% is higher than the state's goal of 15% or less. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism could help the school better support student engagement and learning. Additionally, the lack of data on the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch makes it difficult to assess the school's equity and access for students from lower-income backgrounds, an area that could benefit from further investigation.
