Summary:
The Zeigler-Royalton CUSD 188 district in Illinois contains a single high school, Zeigler-Royalton High School. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois high schools over the past few years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the 2023-2024 school year.
Zeigler-Royalton High School's performance is below state averages in several key metrics. The school's four-year graduation rate of 83.3% is slightly lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 13.0% is higher. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, with a rate of 31.9% compared to the state average. Academically, the school's test scores lag behind state averages, with only 16.7% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in SAT Mathematics and English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 26.1% and 31.1%, respectively.
Despite these challenges, the school's small student-teacher ratio of 7.5 to 1 suggests that there may be opportunities for more personalized attention and support for students. Addressing the root causes of the school's performance, such as high poverty and absenteeism, could potentially lead to improvements in academic outcomes. While Zeigler-Royalton High School is not a standout school, there may be room for progress with targeted interventions and support.
