Summary:
The Homewood Flossmoor CHSD 233 school district in Illinois contains a single high school, Homewood-Flossmoor High School, which serves grades 9-12. Despite being a relatively large school with over 2,800 students, the data suggests Homewood-Flossmoor High School is underperforming compared to state averages in several key areas.
Homewood-Flossmoor High School's four-year graduation rate of 89.0% is slightly above the state average, but its dropout rate of 2.4% is lower than the state average. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is significantly higher than the state average, which may be contributing to its academic challenges. The school's proficiency rates on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics, are lower than state averages, indicating potential gaps in the school's curriculum and instructional programs.
Despite the school's high per-student spending of $23,656 and low student-teacher ratio of 13.6, these resources do not appear to be translating into strong student outcomes. Homewood-Flossmoor High School's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, dropping from 305 out of 697 Illinois high schools in 2023-2024 to 421 out of 699 in 2022-2023. This suggests the school may need to re-evaluate its educational strategies and focus on addressing the areas of underperformance to improve student achievement.
