Summary:
The Mahomet-Seymour CUSD 3 district in Illinois serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with Mahomet-Seymour High School consistently ranking among the top high schools in the state.
Mahomet-Seymour High School is the standout school in the district, with impressive academic achievement. Over 70% of its students are proficient or better in English Language Arts, Math, and Science, significantly outperforming state averages. The school also boasts a high 4-year graduation rate of 89% and a low dropout rate of 2.4%. The middle and elementary schools in the district also demonstrate strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts, though they lag behind the high school in some areas like Math and Science.
While the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is higher than the state average and an area of concern, the relatively low percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch suggests the district serves a relatively affluent population, which may contribute to the strong academic outcomes. The variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the different school levels is also noteworthy and could be an area for further analysis to understand the resource allocation and potential impacts on student learning.
