Tri-County Junior/Senior High School stands out for its consistently high graduation rate, reaching 96.1% in the 2022-2023 school year, and strong performance on ILEARN English Language Arts assessments, with 50.96% of students proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of 41.5%.

Additionally, both schools have seen a decline in ILEARN proficiency rates from 2022-2023 to 2023-2024, mirroring a statewide trend that warrants further investigation.
