Summary:
There is one high school in Stewardson-Strasburg CUD 5A: Stewardson-Strasburg High School, which serves grades 9–12 and has 143 students. Since it is the only school listed, there is no comparison of performance among local high schools. The clearest result is that in 2025–2026, its grade 11 ACT scores were above the state in all three reported subjects, with the largest advantage in math.
Stewardson-Strasburg High School is both the area’s only school and its only possible top or bottom performer; the data cannot establish a local ranking. Its 2025–2026 grade 11 ACT results were 62% in ELA, 60% in math, and 62% in science, compared with state results of 50%, 40%, and 48%. That puts the school 12 points ahead in ELA, 20 points in math, and 14 points in science. Other measures are favorable, too: the graduation rate was 100%, 10 points above the state, while chronic absenteeism was 11%, 13 points below the state.
Grade 11 ACT scores rose from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: 15 points in ELA, 10 in math, and 4 in science, while state results were mostly flat or declined. Other grade-level results were mixed: grade 9 math increased 19 points, but grade 9 science fell 10 points and grade 10 ELA fell 11 points.
