Summary:
The Odin PSD 722 district in Illinois serves students from grades K-12 across two schools - Odin Attendance Center K-8 and Odin Attendance Center 9-12. Based on the available data, the schools in this district appear to be struggling, with low test scores, high absenteeism, and high poverty levels.
Both schools have very low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, ranging from 10-40% proficient, compared to state averages of 47-57% in ELA and 33-50% in Math. The high school also has low proficiency rates in ACT subjects, with only 50% proficient in ELA, 21.4% in Math, and 42.9% in Science, compared to state averages of 51.7%, 39.3%, and 48.7% respectively. Additionally, the high school has a slightly lower graduation rate of 89% and a higher dropout rate of 2.4% compared to state averages.
Despite the high spending per student, at over $15,900 per student, and low student-teacher ratios, the schools are not seeing commensurate improvements in academic outcomes. Both schools also have extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, at 25.4% for each school, compared to the state average of around 15-20%. The high poverty levels, with over 91% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be contributing to the challenges faced by the district. Overall, the data suggests that the schools in the Odin PSD 722 district are in need of targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for their students.
