Summary:
South Holland School District 151 in Illinois has only one middle school, Coolidge Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The data indicates that this school is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.
South Holland School District 151 is ranked 678 out of 813 districts in Illinois and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger. Coolidge Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois middle schools, with a ranking of 932 out of 1,363 schools in the 2023-2024 school year and a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the state averages.
Coolidge Middle School has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 99.8% for the 2022-2023 school year, and a chronic absenteeism rate of 34.1% for the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. Despite these challenges, the school has a relatively high per-student spending of $21,107 for the 2022-2023 school year and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.3 to 1. This suggests that the issue may not be solely about resource allocation, but rather the effective utilization of those resources to improve student outcomes.
