Summary

Cisne Middle School serves 115 students in grades 5–8 in Cisne, Illinois. Its strongest broad academic result is English Language Arts: about 70% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, compared with 56% statewide and 69% in its district. The most important takeaway is that ELA proficiency is above both state and district levels.

Compared with nearby schools, Cisne’s ELA result was above the average for Clay City Junior High School, Floyd Henson Junior High School and Center Street Elementary School—about 70% versus 62%—and ranked second among their reported results. Math was just above the state (42% versus 40%), but below the district’s 45%; it was also close to the nearby-school average. Results differ by grade: seventh-grade math was particularly strong at 72%, compared with 40% statewide, while eighth-grade math was 36%, only slightly above the state’s 35% and below nearby results. Attendance is another bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 6%, versus 24% statewide and 7% in the district, the lowest rate among the four schools.

Results have improved: from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026, math proficiency rose 28 percentage points, from 14% to 42%, moving from well below to slightly above the state. ELA rose 13 points, from 57% to 70%, though its advantage over the state narrowed over that period. SchoolDigger ranks Cisne 330th of 1,126 Illinois schools, in the 71st percentile with 4 stars; its percentile rose 24 points since 2022–2023. In 2024–2025, its student–teacher ratio was 10.7, and 41% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible.
