Summary:
The 61448 zip code is home to a single high school, Knoxville Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. With an enrollment of 283 students, the school is part of the Knoxville CUSD 202 district and is ranked 438 out of 811 high schools in Illinois, earning a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Knoxville Senior High School's academic performance is mixed, with students performing slightly better than the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) but lagging behind in math and science. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 89.0% is relatively strong, but the 2.4% dropout rate suggests room for improvement in student retention and success. Notably, nearly half of the student population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges in the community.
Despite these challenges, the school appears to be investing resources into its educational program, with a student-teacher ratio of 9.8 and spending of $15,543 per student, both of which are better than the state averages. However, the school's SchoolDigger rating has declined from 3 stars in 2022-2023 to 2 stars in 2024-2025, suggesting the need for continued efforts to improve academic outcomes and overall school performance.
