Summary:
The Sangamon Valley CUSD 9 district in Illinois serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 4 schools: Sangamon Valley High School, Sangamon Valley Primary School, Sangamon Valley Middle School, and Sangamon Valley Intermediate School. While the district faces some academic challenges, a few schools stand out for their strong performance.
Sangamon Valley Intermediate School is a standout, with the highest performance on state assessments and a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate. Meanwhile, Sangamon Valley High School has shown improvement, with a higher graduation rate and better SAT scores than the district and state averages. However, Sangamon Valley Middle School stands out as the lowest-performing school, with significantly lower academic achievement compared to the state.
The district as a whole faces challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism and disparities in academic performance across grade levels. Addressing these issues, such as investigating the factors contributing to the decline in performance at the middle school level and supporting the needs of economically disadvantaged students, could be key to improving overall district performance.
