This suggests the school may be effectively supporting these student populations. However, the school struggles with its Asian and multi-racial student groups, ranking in the bottom quartile of Illinois high schools. To improve the school's overall performance, Reavis High School could focus on addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and identifying best practices from the high-performing nearby schools, such as Hancock College Preparatory High School and Oak Lawn Community High School.
