Summary

Prairieview-Ogden Junior High School in Thomasboro, Illinois, serves 68 students in grades 7–8, making it the smallest school in the nearby comparison. Its strongest results are in English Language Arts (ELA), where it led nearby schools in both grades in 2025–2026; the clearest concern is eighth-grade math.

ELA is a standout compared with the state, district, and nearby schools: 88% of seventh graders and 94% of eighth graders were proficient, compared with state rates of 58% and 63%, respectively. Those grade-level results were higher than the next-best nearby results at St Joseph Middle School. Math is more mixed. Seventh-grade proficiency was 61%, behind St Joseph and Mahomet-Seymour, while eighth-grade proficiency was 40%—just 5 points above the state and below nearby results at those two schools. Overall math proficiency was 50%, 1 point below the Prairieview-Ogden CCSD 197 district and 10 points above the state.

ELA proficiency increased from 86% in 2023–2024 to 91% in 2025–2026, while math changed little, from 49% to 50%; the school’s math advantage over the state narrowed from 21 points to 10. Prairieview-Ogden remains highly rated by SchoolDigger at the 84th percentile and 4 stars in 2025–2026, though its percentile has declined from 94 three years earlier. For White students, SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness percentile fell from 87 in 2023–2024 to 72 in 2025–2026, a notable change in that measure of how well the school serves this group. Context for families: the student-teacher ratio was 11.5 in 2024–2025, and 21% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year.
