Summary:
The Griggsville-Perry CUSD 4 school district in Illinois consists of three schools: Griggsville-Perry Primary School, Griggsville-Perry High School, and Griggsville-Perry Middle School. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and is located in a rural area.
Griggsville-Perry Middle School stands out as the top performer in the district, with the highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels compared to the district and state averages. The school also maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. While not the top performer, Griggsville-Perry Primary School has shown promising results, with its 4th-grade ELA proficiency rate exceeding the district and state averages.
However, all three schools in the district face high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 27.2%, which is a concerning trend. Additionally, the district has a significant population of students from low-income families, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 27.2% at the elementary school to 42.9% at the high school. Despite the relatively small class sizes and high per-student spending, the academic performance, particularly at the high school, indicates that the district may need to evaluate the effectiveness of its resource allocation and teaching practices to better address the needs of its students.
