West Prairie CUSD 103 is a school district in Illinois that contains a single high school, West Prairie Senior High School. The school serves grades 9-12 and is located in a rural area.

The school's performance is consistently below state averages across a range of academic assessments, including ACT, PreACT Secure, SAT, and the Illinois Science Assessment.

The school's 4-year graduation rate is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate is slightly higher. Additionally, the school has a notably high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

The school serves a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 49.39% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio is slightly lower, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes.
