Summary:

Five schools serve students in grades 4–8 in zip code 61554: three intermediate schools, two junior highs, and Georgetown Middle School, which serves grades 4–8; four are part of Pekin PSD 108. The 2025–2026 results show stronger performance relative to the state in English Language Arts (ELA) than in mathematics: the five-school averages are 53% in ELA, compared with the state’s 56%, and 26% in math, compared with 40%. The most important area-wide concern is mathematics, where every school is below the state rate.

Georgetown leads all-grades results in both subjects, with 61% in ELA and 36% in math; those results are 4 and 9 points above the next-highest schools, respectively. Washington Intermediate School is the strongest of the two intermediate schools, at 58% in ELA and 26% in math, while Wilson Intermediate School is lowest in math at 19%. Broadmoor Junior High School is lowest in ELA at 45%. Grade-level results add important distinctions: Georgetown leads fifth-grade math at 50%, while Wilson has 13%; all three schools with seventh-grade results are below the state ELA rate.

All five schools improved their all-grades ELA and math percentages from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, and the group’s gap to the state narrowed in both subjects. ELA gains ranged from 1 point at Edison Junior High School to 10 points at Broadmoor; math gains ranged from less than 1 point at Washington to 6 points at Edison. SchoolDigger ranks Broadmoor 937th of 1,126 schools (17th percentile, 1 star), Edison 834th (26th percentile, 1 star), and Georgetown 664th (41st percentile, 2 stars). Context differs, too: in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible rates were 57% at Broadmoor, 51% at Edison, and 59% at Georgetown. Georgetown’s student–teacher ratio was 13.1, compared with Edison’s 10.0; these figures offer context, not explanations for results.
