Freeburg CHSD 77

Freeburg CHSD 77 has one school in this list: Freeburg Community High School, serving grades 9–12 with 689 students. In 2025–2026, the school’s grade 11 ACT and grade 9 and 10 PreACT Secure results were above state results in all nine reported subject and grade comparisons. Its average across those results was 55%, compared with 47% statewide. The most important finding for parents is that the school outperformed the state in every reported test comparison.

Because it is the only school in the district list, Freeburg Community High School is both the district’s top and bottom school by default; there is no school-to-school comparison. Its largest state lead was 17 points in grade 11 ACT English Language Arts, while its smallest was just 0 points when rounded—0.2 points—in grade 9 PreACT science. Across the three matching grade-and-exam results in each subject, mathematics showed the strongest average advantage, at 11 points, followed by English Language Arts at 8 points and science at 4 points. In particular, grade 9 science was nearly level with the state, while mathematics results were notably stronger relative to state results.

Results fell in seven of the nine matched comparisons from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, although grade 10 PreACT English Language Arts and science improved. The school’s average lead over the state narrowed from 12 points to 10 points. Other outcomes were favorable: graduation was 96%, versus 90% statewide, and chronic absenteeism was 13%, versus 24%. SchoolDigger ranked the district 75 of 697 in 2023–2024, 94 of 698 in 2024–2025, and 140 of 620 in 2025–2026; these are district rankings, not rankings of the school. The school’s student–teacher ratio was 15.2 in 2024–2025, and 18% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. These figures describe the school’s context, but with only one school in the list, the data cannot show how school characteristics relate to results.
