Summary:
The Argenta-Oreana CUSD 1 district in Illinois operates three schools: Argenta-Oreana Elementary School, Argenta-Oreana High School, and Argenta-Oreana Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the standout schools, Argenta-Oreana Middle School outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts proficiency and has a higher percentage of students proficient in Science compared to the state average. Argenta-Oreana Elementary School also stands out, with higher Science proficiency in grade 5 and a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate compared to the other schools.
However, the district as a whole faces challenges, including generally underperforming the state averages in academic proficiency, particularly in Mathematics. The high school has particularly low Mathematics proficiency and a lower 4-year graduation rate than the state average. The district may want to investigate the root causes of these issues and develop targeted strategies to address them, such as improving attendance and resource allocation across the schools.
