Summary:
The Salt Creek School District 48 in Illinois is home to 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Stella May Swartz Elementary School and Salt Creek Elementary School) and 1 middle school (John E Albright Middle School). The district as a whole is performing well above the state average, with John E Albright Middle School standing out as the highest-performing school in the district.
John E Albright Middle School consistently ranks in the top 25% of Illinois middle schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly higher than the district and state averages across all grade levels. Additionally, John E Albright Middle School has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 16.0% and a very low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, indicating strong resource allocation.
In contrast, the two elementary schools show more mixed performance. Stella May Swartz Elementary has a 4-star rating but has seen its statewide ranking drop from the top 25% to the top 30% over the past 3 years. Salt Creek Elementary has no statewide ranking data available. The district may want to further investigate the performance differences between the elementary schools and consider ways to replicate the success of the middle school across all grade levels.
