Summary:

High school families in ZIP code 61517 have one listed option, Brimfield High School, which serves grades 9–12 and enrolls 189 students. Its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 92%, 2 percentage points above Illinois, and chronic absenteeism was 11%, 13 points below the state. The clearest strength is grade 11: Brimfield’s ACT results exceeded state scores in all three subjects.

Within the school, grade 11 is the strongest, while grade 9 is the clearest area of concern. In 2025–2026, grade 11 ACT proficiency was 27 points above Illinois in English language arts, 18 points above in math and 22 points above in science. Grade 10 also outperformed the state in all three subjects, by 6 points in English language arts, 11 in math and 3 in science. Grade 9 was below the state in every subject: by 7 points in English language arts, 3 in math and 1 in science. Because this is the only listed school, there is no meaningful comparison of school-to-school leaders or results.

Results moved in different directions across grades and tests. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, grade 11 ACT scores rose 14 points in English language arts, 8 in math and 5 in science. Over the same period, PreACT scores fell in every grade 9 and 10 subject, with declines ranging from 12 to 28 points; grade 10 science fell 28 points, and grade 9 English language arts fell 17. SchoolDigger ranked Brimfield 153rd of 620 schools, at the 75th percentile, in 2025–2026, compared with 68th of 698, at the 90th percentile, in 2024–2025.
