Summary:
There is only one high school, Pleasant Hill High School, located in the Pleasant Hill CUSD 3 school district in Illinois. The data reveals that Pleasant Hill High School has faced fluctuations in its statewide ranking, with a range from 281 out of 697 Illinois high schools in 2023-2024 to 540 out of 699 in 2022-2023. The school's performance on standardized tests, such as the ACT and PreACT Secure, is generally below the state averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science all lower than the Illinois state averages.
Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate of 89.0% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 2.4% is higher than the state average. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Despite the school's relatively small student population of 104 students and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.1 to 1, as well as higher per-student spending of $15,059, the data suggests that the available resources may not be effectively translating into improved student outcomes.
The data indicates that Pleasant Hill High School is facing a range of challenges, including inconsistent performance, underachievement on standardized tests, high chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student success. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address these issues and improve the school's performance.
