Summary:
Millstadt, Illinois, has two schools serving grades PK–8: Millstadt Primary Center (PK–2) and Millstadt Consolidated School (grades 3–8), with 699 students combined. Only Consolidated has reported test results, so the data cannot establish which school performs better academically. The clearest overall finding is that Consolidated’s 2025–2026 proficiency was above Illinois’s in both subjects: 75% versus 56% in English Language Arts (ELA), and 62% versus 40% in math.
Consolidated stands out for achievement compared with the state, with reported advantages of 19 percentage points in ELA and 22 points in math. Its strongest grade-level results include 88% in seventh-grade ELA, 77% in third-grade math, and 76% in fourth-grade math; every reported grade-level result exceeded its corresponding state figure. The Primary Center stands out on attendance: in 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism was 8% there, compared with 15% at Consolidated, a 7-point difference. Consolidated’s rate was also 9 points below the state’s 24%; the district rate was 13%. These attendance figures compare schools serving different grade spans and do not explain the difference.
Test results declined from the prior year even as state results rose, narrowing Consolidated’s lead: its ELA score fell 2 points and its math score fell 2 points, while the school–state gaps narrowed by 6 and 3 points, respectively. Science improved in grades 5 and 8, but the school’s lead over the state narrowed in both. SchoolDigger ranked Consolidated in the 78th percentile in 2025–2026, down 10 percentile points from 2024–2025. For context, in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible students made up 22% at Consolidated and 31% at the Primary Center, a 9-point difference; student–teacher ratios were 13.6 and 12.3, respectively. These context measures do not show what accounts for school outcomes, and the Primary Center has no test results in the data.
