Summary:
The city of East Dubuque, Illinois is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: East Dubuque Elementary School, East Dubuque High School, and East Dubuque Junior High. These schools are part of the East Dubuque Unified School District 119, which is ranked 183 out of 811 districts in Illinois and rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Among the three schools, East Dubuque Elementary School and East Dubuque Junior High stand out for their exceptional performance. Both schools have consistently ranked in the top 30% and 16% of their respective school types in Illinois over the past 3 years, with strong test scores, low chronic absenteeism rates, and high per-student spending. In contrast, while East Dubuque High School is still performing reasonably well, its rankings and test scores are not as strong as the other two schools, and it has a higher chronic absenteeism rate and lower graduation rate.
Overall, the schools in East Dubuque demonstrate a consistent level of performance, with the district as a whole ranking in the top 23% of Illinois districts. However, there may be room for improvement at the high school level and in addressing potential equity concerns, as the schools have relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a need to ensure equitable access to resources and opportunities for all students.
