Summary:
Akin CCSD 91 is a small school district in Illinois that serves the community of Akin, with just one elementary school, Akin Community Cons Elementary School. Despite its small size, the school stands out as a high-performing institution, ranking in the top 16% of Illinois elementary schools and consistently earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Akin Community Cons Elementary School boasts impressive academic achievements, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics significantly exceeding the state averages. The school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate is also well above the state benchmark. These strong academic outcomes are supported by the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1 and higher-than-average spending per student of $14,778.
While the school serves a population with a relatively high rate of economic need, with 51.79% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, it has been able to effectively support its diverse student body and help them achieve academic success. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is an area that could benefit from further attention and improvement.
