Understanding the 5/10 Rating
SchoolDistrictFinder rates Fenton Community High School District 100 5 out of 10 — average among Illinois public school districts. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection (2017–18 school year).
