Summary:
Morrisonville CUSD 1 is a small school district in Illinois that serves a single middle school, Morrisonville Junior High School. With just 43 students, the school faces challenges in academic performance, particularly in mathematics, despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending.
Morrisonville Junior High School's academic performance has been mixed, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) above the district and state averages, but mathematics proficiency rates below the district and state averages. The school's 8th-grade science proficiency rate is also slightly below the state average. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.3%, which may be impacting student learning and outcomes.
While the school has access to significant resources, as evidenced by its low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending, it has struggled to translate these resources into strong academic performance, particularly in mathematics. The district and school should focus on addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and implementing strategies to improve student learning and achievement across all subject areas to better support the students in this small, resource-rich school.
