Summary

Located in Taylor Ridge, Illinois, Rockridge High School enrolls 330 students in grades 9–12. Its strongest results are in math and English, but the clearest concern is 11th-grade science: 26% scored at the reported level, 22 points below the state’s 48% and lower than every nearby school.

Math is a standout compared with nearby schools and the state. Rockridge had the highest nearby 10th-grade math result, at 45% versus 36% statewide, and the highest 11th-grade ACT math result, at 45% versus 40% statewide. It was above the state in English language arts in all three tested grades and ranked second nearby at each grade. Science results vary: Rockridge led nearby schools in grade 10, scoring 55% versus 48% statewide, but its grade 9 result was below the state. The Rockridge CUSD 300 matched the school’s reported grade 11 ACT results. Graduation was 95%, above the state’s 90%, and chronic absenteeism was 18%, below the state’s 24% and the lowest among nearby schools.

Recent results are mixed: grade 11 ACT English and math each rose about 5 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while SchoolDigger’s statewide school ranking fell from the 74th percentile to the 62nd percentile (3 stars). Rockridge remains second among nearby schools; Sherrard High School is higher, at the 71st percentile. In 2024–2025, Rockridge had the area’s lowest student-teacher ratio, 12.8, and the lowest free/reduced lunch eligible share among nearby schools with the same measure and year, at 21%. These are contextual observations, not explanations for results. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking of its effectiveness for female students fell from the 73rd percentile in 2024–2025 to the 45th in 2025–2026, 17 points below the school’s current overall percentile.
