Summary:

The city of Ina, Illinois has only one middle school, Spring Garden Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science significantly below the state averages. Additionally, the school faces challenges related to high chronic absenteeism and a predominantly low-income student population.

Spring Garden Middle School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 567th out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools in 2023-2024 to 913th out of 1,367 in 2022-2023. The school's current 2024-2025 ranking is 832nd out of 1,368 schools. While the school's spending per student is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students.

The data suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the root causes of the low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population. Identifying and addressing these issues could be crucial in helping Spring Garden Middle School and its students succeed.
