Summary

Amelia V Carriel Junior High serves 664 students in grades 6–8 in O Fallon, Illinois. SchoolDigger places it at the 73rd percentile statewide and gives it four stars for 2025–2026. The main takeaway for families is that Carriel’s results are above state averages, but it trails both its district and the nearby school with the same grade span, Fulton Junior High.

Fulton also scored higher in each subject—by 9 points in ELA, 13 in math and 7 in eighth-grade science. Within Carriel, eighth-grade math is a particular area to watch: 44% were proficient, compared with 53% in seventh grade.

Scores have improved since 2023–2024: ELA rose from 61% to 71%, and math from 38% to 48%. Still, SchoolDigger’s overall percentile fell from 82 in 2024–2025 to 73 in 2025–2026.
