Summary:

Astoria CUSD 1 in Illinois has only one middle school, Astoria Junior High School, serving students in grades 6-8. While the school has a relatively small enrollment of 57 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has been mixed compared to district and state averages.

Astoria Junior High School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (37.8%) and Mathematics (26.7%) in 2024-2025 were lower than the Astoria CUSD 1 district (43.9% and 29%) and the state (53.1% and 38.5%) averages. However, the school's 8th-grade proficiency rates in ELA (46.7%) and Science (46.7%) were higher than the district and state. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, significantly above the state average.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($14,408) and small class sizes, its academic performance has declined over the past few years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 571 out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools in 2023-2024 to 798 out of 1,368 in 2024-2025. The school serves a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 57.89% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, which may contribute to the equity concerns and academic challenges faced by Astoria Junior High School.
