Summary:
The Oakwood CUSD 76 district in Illinois serves students from two schools - Oakwood Grade School, an elementary school, and Oakwood High School. Based on the available data, neither school appears to be a standout performer, as both institutions consistently underperform compared to state averages on key metrics such as test scores, attendance, graduation rates, and socioeconomic factors.
Oakwood Grade School has significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the state averages across all grade levels. Similarly, Oakwood High School's ACT and PreACT Secure test scores lag behind state averages in ELA, Mathematics, and Science. Both schools also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, which are much higher than the state average. Oakwood High School's four-year graduation rate of 89.0% and dropout rate of 2.4% for the 2024-2025 school year are also less favorable than the state's performance.
Socioeconomic factors also present challenges for the schools in the Oakwood CUSD 76 district. Both Oakwood Grade School and Oakwood High School have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and the district's spending per student is lower than the state average. These findings suggest that the district may be facing equity concerns in providing high-quality educational opportunities for its students.
