Summary:

The Oblong CUSD 4 district in Illinois operates two schools - Oblong Elementary School and Oblong High School. While Oblong Elementary School excels in English Language Arts and science, it struggles with mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Oblong High School has a relatively high graduation rate but performs poorly on both English Language Arts and mathematics assessments compared to state averages.

Oblong Elementary School has seen its statewide ranking decline in recent years, from 1387 out of 2067 Illinois elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 1171 out of 2056 in 2024-2025, with a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Meanwhile, Oblong High School's statewide ranking has also declined, from 334 out of 697 Illinois high schools in 2023-2024 to 514 out of 698 in 2024-2025, with a 1-star rating in 2024-2025.

Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending, suggesting that resources may not be the primary factor limiting academic performance. However, the relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at both schools suggests that socioeconomic challenges may be impacting student achievement. Addressing these underlying factors, as well as implementing targeted instructional strategies, could be crucial for the Oblong CUSD 4 district to improve student outcomes and increase its schools' statewide rankings.
