Summary:

The Hamilton County CUSD 10 district in Illinois consists of 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools (East Side Elementary, Dahlgren Elementary, and Hamilton County Preschool Center) and 1 junior/senior high school (Hamilton County Junior/Senior High School).

Among the elementary schools, East Side Elementary stands out, ranking 673 out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperformed the district and state averages in English Language Arts proficiency across all grades and had the highest Mathematics proficiency rates among the elementary schools. In contrast, Dahlgren Elementary ranked 966 out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools, with a 3-star rating, and had the lowest Mathematics proficiency rates in the district.

The district's performance on state assessments was generally below the state averages, with the Hamilton County Junior/Senior High School struggling, particularly in Mathematics. The district also faces challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across all schools, which may impact student learning and achievement. The variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests potential inequities in resource allocation within the district.
