Summary:
The 62424 zip code area is home to two schools - Dieterich Elementary School and Dieterich Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Dieterich CUSD 30 district. While the elementary school stands out as a top performer, the secondary school has more mixed academic results, particularly in mathematics.
Dieterich Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top 15% of Illinois elementary schools, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is significantly above state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, with particularly strong results in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade English Language Arts (ELA).
In contrast, Dieterich Junior/Senior High School has more mixed academic results, with ELA proficiency rates around the state average but Math proficiency lagging behind, especially in 7th and 8th grade. Both schools have relatively low percentages of students qualifying for free/reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively affluent student population. However, the higher-than-target chronic absenteeism rates at both schools are a potential area of concern that may warrant further investigation.
