GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It was a wonderful academic experience. The teachers showed daily their commitment to student success and taught many varying classes to accommodate for student's interests.

I loved my teachers when I attended. They kept me intrigued but would not overload me with homework. The quality of the education prepared me fairly well for my current college courses. There was a surplus of sports and school organizations to get involved in for how small the school is. Overall, I enjoyed my time at Illini Central and I have gone back to visit with teachers at least once a year.

It could use some more help around the edges if you ask me health wise but we are pretty safe here, more than we realize.

They definitely cant offer some of what the larger area school curriculums can but for what it lacks it makes up for with it's one on one time dedicated to the students.
