Iroquois West Middle School's performance on standardized tests is mixed compared to state and district averages. While the school outperforms the state in both ELA and Math proficiency, it falls short of the district averages in these subjects. However, the school's Science proficiency rate of 36.1% is notably lower than the state average of 53.2%, indicating an area of concern. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.1%, which is higher than the state average.
The school serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with a free/reduced lunch rate of 58.88%. Despite this, the school's spending per student of $11,772 is higher than the national average, and the student-teacher ratio of 13.4 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. Overall, the data suggests that Iroquois West Middle School has some areas of strength, but also faces challenges that may require targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
