Summary:

Lebanon High School is a public high school serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 245 students in Lebanon, Illinois, which is part of the Lebanon CUSD 9 district.

While Lebanon High School has seen a decline in its 4-year graduation rate, dropping from 93.5% in 2019-2020 to 65.9% in 2023-2024, this is significantly lower than the nearby high schools, such as Highland High School (96.3%), Collinsville High School (85.7%), and Belleville High School-East (91.7%). Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages, and it has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10% in 2019-2020 to 36.7% in 2023-2024, which is much higher than the nearby high schools.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9 students per teacher in 2022-2023, compared to the nearby high schools, which have ratios ranging from 14.3 to 16.9 students per teacher, Lebanon High School faces several challenges, including declining performance, high chronic absenteeism, and lower test scores compared to nearby high schools and state averages. Addressing these issues may require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, collaboration with the community, and a focus on improving the overall educational experience for students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
