Summary:
Waltonville CUSD 1 is a small school district in Illinois that serves the community of Waltonville. The district has just one high school, Waltonville High School, which has struggled to consistently perform at a high level compared to other Illinois high schools.
Waltonville High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated significantly in recent years, ranging from 245th out of 699 schools in 2022-2023 to 540th out of 697 schools in 2023-2024. The school is currently rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9:1 and higher-than-average spending per student, its test scores, particularly in mathematics and English language arts, are significantly lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 12.6% and a dropout rate of 12.5%, both of which are higher than the state averages.
Despite these challenges, Waltonville High School does have some academic strengths, with its science proficiency on the ISA being higher than the state average. However, the school's overall inconsistent performance and struggles in key areas suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement and targeted interventions to help the school better serve its students and the Waltonville community.
