Summary:
The 60459 zip code is home to a single high school, Reavis High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Reavis Township HSD 220 district. While the school has a relatively large student population of 1,961, its performance metrics suggest room for improvement, with declining statewide rankings, below-average academic proficiency, and high chronic absenteeism rates.
Reavis High School's graduation rate of 89.0% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 2.4% is slightly higher. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below state averages across subjects and grade levels, with only 42.5% of 11th-grade students proficient in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 51.7%. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (66.6%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population.
Despite the school's challenges, it is spending more per student ($20,431) than the state average, suggesting that additional resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes. The school's performance metrics, such as graduation rates and dropout rates, are close to state averages, but there is still room for improvement. Further investigation into the factors contributing to Reavis High School's declining performance and the implementation of targeted interventions could help address the identified challenges and support student success.
