District-Level NCES Analysis
Minooka Ccsd 201 operates 7 public schools serving 4,499 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Illinois. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 elementary, 1 middle, 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Grundy County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,419 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 848 Illinois districts by per-pupil spending. See how Illinois compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 54.2% local, 38.6% state, and 7.2% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 23/100, ranked #673 of 763 in Illinois against a state average of 38, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 512:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 61.8% White, 25.2% Hispanic or Latino, 7.4% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Jones Elementary School, with a diversity index of 64.9/100.
Its largest campus is Minooka Jr High School, enrolling 1,024 students (23% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Minooka Primary Center, at 247 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Minooka Jr High School accounts for 22.8% of all Minooka Ccsd 201 student enrollment
That concentration means Minooka Ccsd 201-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: middle. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Minooka Ccsd 201 school enrollment varies 4.1× across entities
Minooka Ccsd 201 school enrollment ranges from 247 students (lowest) to 1,024 students (highest), a spread of 777 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Minooka Ccsd 201 student-counselor ratio is 512:1: well above typical (strongly associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above the benchmark warrant a closer look at the underlying sub-units rather than treating the aggregate as representative.
Minooka Ccsd 201 chronic absenteeism rate is 19.5%: slightly below the ~28 national average, aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Sitting just under the national figure still leaves meaningful room for sub-unit variation that the aggregate number hides. Variation between sub-units within Minooka Ccsd 201 is typically wider than the Minooka Ccsd 201-aggregate figure suggests.
