Summary:
The DePue Unified School District 103 in Illinois is home to a single high school, DePue High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The data reveals that DePue High School has consistently underperformed compared to state averages across a range of academic metrics, including standardized test scores, graduation rates, and attendance.
DePue High School has a statewide ranking that has fluctuated between 446 and 573 out of 698-699 Illinois high schools over the past few years, with a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate of 89.0% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 2.4% is higher than the state average.

Academically, DePue High School's performance is well below state averages in subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school's per-student spending of $18,454 is higher than the state average, but this does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes. The high percentage of students (85.71%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates a high level of economic disadvantage, which may be contributing to the school's academic struggles. The data suggests that DePue High School would benefit from targeted interventions and support to address its academic and demographic challenges.
