Summary:

The Harrisburg CUSD 3 school district in Illinois has only one high school, Harrisburg High School, which has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois high schools over the past few years. The school's performance rating is 1 out of 5 stars, and its students perform significantly below the state average in standardized test scores across all subjects.

Harrisburg High School has a relatively high percentage of students (63.83%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant economically disadvantaged population. Despite the higher spending per student at $14,871, which is above the state average, the school's academic outcomes remain significantly below the state average. This raises questions about the effectiveness of resource allocation and the need for targeted interventions to address the school's challenges.

Chronic absenteeism is also a concern at Harrisburg High School, with 25.4% of students chronically absent in the 2024-2025 school year. Addressing attendance issues could be a priority for the school and district in order to improve the overall performance and outcomes for its students.
