Summary:
Sandwich, Illinois, has five schools in this set: three elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, with enrollment ranging from 170 to 560 students. Results vary by school and subject: elementary schools are especially strong in math overall, while the high school’s latest grade-11 ACT results were below state results in all three subjects. The clearest standout is Prairie View Elementary School, which led the elementary schools in both reported subjects.
In 2025–2026 all-grades IAR results, Prairie View reached 63% in ELA and 71% in math, about 7 and 31 percentage points above state results. Sandwich Middle School was also above the state in both subjects, at 64% in ELA and 42% in math; however, its eighth-grade math result was 22%, 13 points below the state. The other elementary schools show contrasting profiles: Lynn G Haskin Elementary School was 21 points above the state in math but 9 points below in ELA, while W W Woodbury Elementary School was 9 points above the state in math and about even in ELA. At the high school, grade-11 ACT results were 48% in ELA, 36% in math and 43% in science—2, 4 and 5 points below state results, respectively.
Trends are mixed: Sandwich Middle’s IAR results rose 13 points in ELA and 12 in math from 2024–2025, while Haskin fell 25 points in ELA and 23 in math. The high school’s ACT science result dropped 16 points year over year, whereas its grade-nine PreACT Secure science result rose 8 points and moved from below the state to about even. SchoolDigger rates Prairie View four stars, at the 78th percentile; the other schools have three stars except the high school, with two stars and a 44th-percentile ranking. The 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible shares ranged from 37% at Prairie View to 51% at the middle school; elementary student-teacher ratios ranged from 13.2 at Haskin to 18.2 at Woodbury, so these school characteristics provide context but do not by themselves explain the results.
