District-Level NCES Analysis
Rome Ccsd 2 operates 1 public schools serving 330 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Illinois. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,673 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 85 of 848 Illinois districts by per-pupil spending.

The district's equity score is 47/100, ranked #180 of 763 in Illinois against a state average of 38, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Rome Ccsd 2 a distant remainder — means Rome Ccsd 2-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.
Rome Ccsd 2 chronic absenteeism rate is 26.2% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — 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 Variation between sub-units within Rome Ccsd 2 is typically wider than the Rome Ccsd 2-aggregate figure suggests.
