Best Public Schools in Zip Code 62363


Summary:

The 62363 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Pikeland CUSD 10 district. Overall, the schools in this area are underperforming compared to state averages, with low proficiency rates on standardized tests and high chronic absenteeism.

The middle school, Pikeland Community School, is the lowest performing of the three, ranking in the bottom 20% of Illinois middle schools. It has very low proficiency rates in English and Math, as well as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3%. The high school, Pittsfield High School, performs slightly better but still has SAT proficiency rates well below state averages. The lone elementary school, Pittsfield South Elementary, does not have enough historical data to fully evaluate, but its 19.7% chronic absenteeism rate is concerning.

Across the district, high free/reduced lunch rates (43-53%) indicate these schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population. Spending per student also varies significantly, with the elementary school spending less than half as much per student as the middle school. Addressing the root causes of the low academic achievement, high absenteeism, and resource disparities will be critical for improving outcomes for students in the 62363 zip code area.
