Summary:
Hollis Cons School District 328 has one school, Hollis Consolidated Grade School, serving kindergarten through eighth grade and enrolling 147 students. With no other school in the area list, it is both the highest and lowest by default, so there is no peer-school comparison. In 2025–2026, the school’s all-grades results were above Illinois in both English language arts (ELA) and math: 69% versus 56% in ELA, a 13-point advantage, and 44% versus 40% in math, a 4-point advantage. The most important takeaway is that the school exceeds state results in both subjects, with a much stronger relative showing in ELA.
The clearest standout is fifth-grade science: 78% of students were proficient, 30 points above the state’s 48%, the largest advantage among the reported same-grade comparisons. Fifth-grade ELA also stood out at 83%, compared with 55% statewide, a 28-point advantage; third-grade math was 71% versus 49%, 22 points higher. The reported fourth-grade ELA result was 68%, 13 points above the state’s 56%. These results make fifth-grade science and ELA notable strengths, while the smaller all-grades math advantage is the school’s relatively less strong comparison with Illinois; none of these figures identifies a bottom-performing school in the area.
Results changed in different directions over time. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, all-grades ELA rose 13 points, and its lead over the state widened by 10 points; math fell 8 points, and its state lead narrowed by 9 points. Fifth-grade science climbed 38 points, from 40% to 78%. SchoolDigger lists the school at rank 223 of 1,737, in the 87th percentile, up from the 65th percentile the prior year; the district listing has a 4-star rating and rank of 77 of 738. For context, the school’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 10.5, and 24% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 13% in 2025–2026, below the statewide 24%.
