Dwight Common School District 232


Summary:

Dwight Common School District 232 is a small school district in Illinois that serves the community of Dwight, with only one elementary school, Dwight Common School, which educates students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. While the school's overall performance has fluctuated in recent years, it generally lags behind state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency.

Dwight Common School faces some socioeconomic challenges, with nearly half of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and a chronic absenteeism rate higher than the state average. Despite these challenges, the school appears to have a relatively high level of per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to state averages, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate how it allocates its resources to better support student learning and achievement.

The data highlights several areas where Dwight Common School could focus its efforts to improve student performance, such as addressing the lower proficiency rates in Mathematics, particularly in the upper grades, and exploring strategies to reduce chronic absenteeism. By addressing these challenges, the school may be able to provide a more well-rounded and effective education for the students in the Dwight Common School District 232.
