Summary:
The city of Herscher, Illinois is home to two schools: Herscher High School and Herscher Intermediate School, both part of the Herscher CUSD 2 district. Based on the available data, Herscher High School appears to be the standout school, with a higher statewide ranking, better test scores, and a relatively high graduation rate.
Herscher High School students perform above the state average in ACT/Mathematics and SAT/Mathematics, indicating a strength in mathematics. However, both schools lag behind the state average in some areas, such as ACT/English Language Arts and PreACT Secure/English Language Arts. Additionally, both schools have a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, which may be an area of concern for the district to address.
The data also reveals differences between the two schools, such as Herscher Intermediate School having a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and Herscher High School spending more per student and having a higher student-teacher ratio. These differences may reflect the unique needs and priorities of each school within the district, and could inform resource allocation and targeted support programs.
