Summary:
The Valmeyer CUSD 3 district in Illinois serves students from preschool through 12th grade across three schools: Valmeyer Elementary School, Valmeyer High School, and Valmeyer Junior High. While the district faces some challenges, such as low test scores and high chronic absenteeism, it also has several standout schools that are providing quality education to their students.
Valmeyer High School is the district's strongest performer, ranking 202 out of 697 Illinois high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts a 91.4% four-year graduation rate and strong performance on standardized tests, with 40% of 11th graders proficient or better in SAT English Language Arts and 16.6% proficient or better in SAT Mathematics.

Valmeyer Elementary School also stands out, outperforming the district and state averages on several key metrics, including 3rd-grade IAR English Language Arts and 5th-grade ISA Science. However, the district as a whole faces challenges with low proficiency rates on standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics, as well as high chronic absenteeism rates across all three schools.
