Summary:
The Washington CHSD 308 district in Illinois is home to one exceptional high school, Washington Community High School. This standout institution ranks in the top 10% of Illinois high schools, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and boasting a 4-year graduation rate of 89.7%, well above the state average.
Washington Community High School's academic excellence is evident in its consistently strong performance on standardized tests, with students outpacing state averages in SAT Math (43.1% vs. 26.1%), SAT ELA (46.2% vs. 31.1%), and ISA Science (71.8% vs. 53.2%). The school's low student-teacher ratio of 17.2 and per-student spending of $13,186, in line with state averages, suggest the district is effectively allocating resources to support student learning and achievement.
While the school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (22.51%) may indicate a more affluent student population, the school's exceptional performance suggests it is able to provide a quality education to students across the socioeconomic spectrum. The only area for potential improvement is the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 22.0%, which is on the higher side and could be an opportunity for the district to address attendance challenges and maintain the school's high levels of academic success.
