The Du Quoin High School is the sole high school serving the Du Quoin CUSD 300 school district in Illinois. The school has a student population of 424 and serves grades 9-12.

Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate and a slightly lower graduation rate compared to the state average.

The school's relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients and higher per-student spending suggest that the school may be serving a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, which could contribute to the academic challenges the school is facing.

Overall, Du Quoin High School is a relatively average-performing school in Illinois, with some areas of strength and areas that need improvement. By addressing the attendance, academic, and demographic factors, the school and district can work to improve the overall educational outcomes for their students.
