Summary:
Zip code 61046 has one school, Eastland Junior/Senior High School, serving 298 students in grades 7–12, so the area has no other listed schools to compare. Its 2025–26 proficiency results were above state rates in every supplied test comparison, with especially strong results in eighth-grade math and all-grades English language arts (ELA).
Eastland is both the highest- and lowest-ranked school in this one-school list; that does not indicate how it compares with nearby schools. Its strongest state-relative result was eighth-grade IAR math: 64% proficient versus 35% statewide, a 29-point advantage. All-grades IAR results were also notably higher than the state: 82% in ELA versus 56%, and 61% in math versus 40%. SchoolDigger ranked Eastland 97th of 620 schools in 2025–26, in the 84th percentile, and gave it four stars.
All-grades IAR proficiency improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA rose 16 points and math rose 7 points, while Eastland’s advantage over the state grew by 13 points in ELA and 6 points in math. SchoolDigger’s ranking history also moved upward, from 212th of 697 schools and three stars in 2023–24 to 115th of 698 and four stars in 2024–25. Other reported measures are favorable compared with state figures: graduation was 100% versus 90%, and chronic absenteeism was 8% versus 24% in 2025–26. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 12.4 in 2024–25, and 41% of students were eligible for free/reduced-price lunch that school year. Because only one school is listed, these figures describe Eastland rather than a range of area schools.
