Summary:
Bensenville School District 2 in Illinois has one middle school, Blackhawk Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 with an enrollment of 665 students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.4, it faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% and test scores that are generally below the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
Blackhawk Middle School's academic performance is a concern, with only 49.4% of students proficient in ELA and 32.2% proficient in Math, compared to district averages of 46.1% and 33.4%, respectively. The school's 8th-grade Science proficiency rate of 31.2% is also significantly lower than the state average of 45.4%. Additionally, a high percentage of students (56.99%) receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Overall, Bensenville School District 2 appears to have room for improvement in its middle school offerings. Blackhawk Middle School's chronic absenteeism, academic underperformance, and economic challenges suggest that the district may need to focus on addressing these issues to provide a high-quality education for all students in the area.
