Summary:
The St Joseph CCSD 169 district in Illinois is home to two schools - St Joseph Elementary School and St Joseph Middle School. While both schools are performing well above the state average, the data shows that the middle school is a standout performer, consistently ranking among the top 100 middle schools in Illinois and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The middle school's test scores are particularly impressive, with a high percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. In contrast, while the elementary school is still performing well, its rankings and test scores are not as strong as the middle school. The elementary school has ranked between 301-447 out of over 2,000 Illinois elementary schools in recent years and has lower proficiency rates in some subject areas compared to the middle school.
The data also reveals some interesting differences between the two schools, such as the higher chronic absenteeism rate at the middle school and the higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at the elementary school. These factors may be worth further investigation to ensure all students in the district are receiving the support they need to succeed.
