Summary:
The city of Sumner, Illinois has only one middle school, the Sumner Attendance Center, which serves grades 4-6. With an enrollment of 213 students, the school faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate and below-average math proficiency compared to the state.
Academically, the Sumner Attendance Center performs well above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, with 60.2% of all students meeting or exceeding standards, compared to the state average of 53.1%. However, the school struggles in mathematics, with only 25.8% of students proficient, significantly lower than the state average of 38.5%. This is an area that may require additional focus and resources.
The school also faces socioeconomic challenges, with 61.5% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, the school's spending per student of $10,205 is in line with the state average, suggesting that funding may not be a major constraint. Overall, the Sumner Attendance Center appears to be a relatively strong performer in ELA, but needs to address its math proficiency and high chronic absenteeism rates to better serve its students.
