Summary:
The Genoa-Kingston Middle School is the sole middle school serving the Genoa Kingston CUSD 424 district in Illinois. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, it continues to outperform the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Science. However, the school's performance in Mathematics is an area of concern, with only 22% of students proficient or better in the 2023-2024 school year.
Genoa-Kingston Middle School has a student-teacher ratio of 11.9 and a per-student spending of $14,014 (2022-2023 school year). The school serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 41.08% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may be an important consideration when analyzing the school's performance and identifying strategies for improvement.
One notable area of concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 13% for the 2023-2024 school year. Addressing attendance issues and supporting students who are chronically absent may be an important focus for the school in order to improve overall student outcomes. Despite these challenges, Genoa-Kingston Middle School continues to demonstrate strengths in certain subject areas, and further analysis and targeted interventions could help the school address its areas of weakness and improve its statewide ranking.
