Summary:
Rantoul Township HSD 193 has one school, Rantoul Township High School, serving grades 9–12 with 901 students. The clearest concern is academic proficiency: in 2025–26, the school was below the state rate in all nine reported subject and grade/test comparisons, by 16 to 27 percentage points.
There is no school-to-school leader or lower-performing school to compare, because Rantoul Township High is the only school in the list. Its smallest shortfall was in Grade 10 PreACT mathematics, where 21% were proficient compared with 36% statewide, a 16-point gap; its largest was Grade 11 ACT mathematics, at 13% versus 40%, a 27-point gap. Across the three comparisons in each subject, average proficiency was 33% in ELA, 19% in mathematics, and 29% in science; science was closest to its state benchmarks, while mathematics had the lowest school average. Attendance and completion indicators also lagged the state: chronic absenteeism was 38% versus 24%, dropout was 4% versus 2%, and graduation was 87% versus 90%.
Results improved unevenly from 2024–25 to 2025–26: Grade 10 PreACT proficiency rose in all three subjects, with mathematics up 8 points, ELA up 5, and science up 6, while Grade 11 ACT proficiency declined in all three. Across the nine comparisons, the average gap with the state narrowed by about 1 point, from 22 to 21 points, but several results moved in the opposite direction. SchoolDigger ranks the district 707th of 738, in the 4th percentile, with zero stars. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 14 in 2024–25, and 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year; these are context measures, not explanations for results. With only one school listed, the data cannot support comparisons among schools in the district.
