South Central CUD 401


Summary:

The South Central CUD 401 district in Illinois serves three schools: one elementary, one middle, and one high school. While the high school and elementary school show some promising signs, the district as a whole faces significant challenges in academic performance, particularly at the middle school level.

South Central High School stands out as the strongest performer, ranking 342 out of 697 Illinois high schools and achieving a 89.4% four-year graduation rate, which is higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, South Central Middle School struggles, with proficiency rates in ELA and math well below the state averages across all grade levels. South Central Elementary-Kinmundy outperforms the district and state in several academic areas, including 4th grade ELA and 5th grade science.

The district as a whole serves a predominantly low-income population, with all three schools having a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the district's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, the academic performance remains below state averages, suggesting a need to closely examine the effective allocation of resources and ensure equitable access to high-quality educational opportunities for all students.
