Summary:

The Alton CUSD 11 district in Illinois consists of 10 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 728 out of 811 districts in Illinois and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Among the Alton CUSD 11 schools, East Elementary School stands out with the highest ranking (1381 out of 2056 Illinois elementary schools) and the best proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grades. Alton High School also performs better than the district average, with a 89.0% four-year graduation rate and higher proficiency rates on ACT/SAT assessments compared to the district.
