Summary

Hoopeston Area High School is a public high school in Hoopeston, Illinois, serving 307 students in grades 9–12 as part of Hoopeston Area CUSD 11. The clearest concern is 11th-grade math: in 2025–2026, 13% of students were proficient, compared with 40% statewide, a 27-point gap; ELA and science were also below state results.

ELA is the school’s strongest current ACT subject, but it still trails the state and nearby results; math is weakest. Hoopeston’s 11th-grade ELA proficiency was 37%, versus 50% statewide and an average of 46% at Armstrong High School and Milford High School Campus. Science was 30%, compared with 48% statewide and a 39% average at those two schools. Milford’s math result was 31%, well above Hoopeston’s 13%. Earlier-grade results are concerning too: Hoopeston had the lowest reported ELA and science scores among nearby schools with results for grades 9 and 10, and both subjects were below state levels. The supplied district figures match Hoopeston’s latest 11th-grade ACT results.

Results show mixed movement: 11th-grade ELA rose from 30% to 37% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, while math fell from 15% to 13%; 9th- and 10th-grade PreACT ELA also declined in the two reported years. Chronic absenteeism improved from 44% in 2021–2022 to 32% in 2025–2026, but remained above the state’s 24% and the district’s 25%. SchoolDigger ranked Hoopeston 536th of 620 Illinois schools in 2025–2026, at the 14th percentile with 1 star; its percentile fell from 38 in 2023–2024. SchoolDigger’s White Students ranking was at the 1st percentile in 2025–2026, compared with 14 overall, a notably lower statewide measure of how well the school serves that group. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 10.7, higher than the nearby reported ratios of about 8. In 2024–2025, 57% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 42% average at four nearby schools; this is context, not an explanation for results.
