Summary:
The Liberty CUSD 2 district in Illinois serves students from two schools - Liberty Elementary School and Liberty High School. Based on the available data, Liberty High School emerges as the standout school in the district, consistently ranking in the top 18% of Illinois high schools and maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Liberty High School boasts impressive academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding state averages across several key assessments, including IAR English Language Arts, IAR Mathematics, ACT English, and ACT Science. The school also maintains a high 89% 4-year graduation rate and a low 2.4% dropout rate. In contrast, while Liberty Elementary School performs well above the state average in 3rd grade ELA, proficiency rates decline in the upper elementary grades, suggesting a need to focus on improving reading and writing skills.
Both schools have relatively low percentages of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, indicating a relatively affluent student population. However, Liberty Elementary School has a higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the district and state averages, which may be an area of concern. Overall, the data suggests that Liberty CUSD 2 has a strong high school that consistently outperforms state averages, but with room for improvement at the elementary level.
