Summary

Momence High School is a 315-student school serving grades 9–12 in Momence, Illinois. The school has a higher reported graduation rate than the state, but its academic results and attendance raise concerns. In 2025–2026, its graduation rate was 92%, compared with 90% statewide, while chronic absenteeism was 38%, compared with 24% statewide. Most importantly, proficiency was below the state in every reported subject and grade, and absenteeism was also well above the state rate.

Test results show that Momence trails both the state and most nearby schools. On the 2025–2026 11th-grade ACT, proficiency was 29% in ELA, 16% in math, and 32% in science, compared with state rates of 50%, 40%, and 48%. Nearby-school averages were 44% in ELA, 31% in math, and 42% in science. Freshman PreACT results are a relative bright spot: grade 9 ELA reached 51%, up from 42% the previous year, though the nearby-school average was 63%. Graduation is a strength compared with the state, while chronic absenteeism is higher than the state and district rates; only Kankakee High School was higher among nearby schools with reported current figures.

Results have moved unevenly: grade 9 ELA and math improved, but 11th-grade ACT ELA fell from 39% to 29%, and ACT math fell from 21% to 16%. Momence ranks 514th of 620 schools statewide on SchoolDigger for 2025–2026, at the 17th percentile with one star; its percentile was 43 in 2021–2022. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 12.6, within the nearby range of 10.8–15.6, and 63% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s 2024–2025 subgroup rankings were notably higher for English learner students (64th percentile) and African American students (49th) than for the school overall (23rd), suggesting stronger relative results for those groups on that measure; these rankings do not describe every student’s experience.
