Summary:
Rochelle Township HSD 212 has one high school, Rochelle Township High School, serving grades 9–12 with 859 students. In 2025–26, the school’s test results were below state results in all nine reported grade-and-subject comparisons, though the size of the gaps varied. Its strongest comparison was 9th-grade PreACT science, at 46% versus 47% statewide, while its largest shortfall—and the clearest academic concern—was 10th-grade PreACT ELA, at 39% versus 54% statewide, a 15-point gap.
There are no other high schools in this group to compare, so Rochelle Township High School is both the highest- and lowest-scoring school in the list; that is not a meaningful peer ranking. Within its own results, 9th-grade PreACT science was closest to the state, just 1 point lower, while 10th-grade ELA was farthest behind. The 10th-grade results were also below state results in mathematics (26% versus 36%, a 11-point gap) and science (37% versus 48%, a 12-point gap). Outside testing, the school’s 95% graduation rate was 5 points above the state rate; its dropout rate was 2% versus 2% statewide, and chronic absenteeism was 17% versus 24%.
Results changed in different directions across grades: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, 9th-grade PreACT scores improved relative to the state in all three subjects, while 10th-grade gaps widened in all three. For example, 9th-grade math rose 12 percentage points at the school, while 10th-grade ELA fell 14 points. SchoolDigger’s school ranking history also declined, from the 57th percentile in 2023–24 to the 38th percentile in 2025–26; this reflects relative standing, not a direct measure of test-score change. The student-teacher ratio was 15.2 in 2024–25, and 16% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2021–22. There is only one school in the area, so the data cannot show how results differ among local schools.
