Summary:

The Champaign CUSD 4 district in Illinois serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 18 schools, including 13 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district's performance varies, with some standout schools like South Side Elementary School and Carrie Busey Elementary School leading the way, while others like Stratton Elementary School and Garden Hills Elementary School lag behind.

Among the high schools, Central High School stands out with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science for 11th-grade students. The district's graduation rates are consistent, with both Central High School and Centennial High School achieving a 89.0% four-year graduation rate. However, the district as a whole faces challenges, with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% across all schools and significant variations in spending per student and student-teacher ratios.

The data suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the academic performance of schools within the Champaign CUSD 4 district, with the schools serving higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch generally performing lower. Addressing these disparities and improving the overall district performance should be a priority for the school system.
