District-Level NCES Analysis
Triad Cusd 2 operates 6 public schools serving 3,991 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Illinois. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 combined, 1 high, 1 middle, 1 elementary 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 Madison County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,966 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 85 of 848 Illinois districts by per-pupil spending. See how Illinois compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 52.8% local, 38.9% state, and 8.3% 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 18/100, ranked #717 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.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (11 AP courses district-wide), a 434.3:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 15.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.3% White, 3.4% Hispanic or Latino, 1.4% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is C a Henning School, with a diversity index of 24.3/100.
Its largest campus is Triad High School, enrolling 1,218 students (30% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Marine Elem School, at 141 students, a 9x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Triad High School accounts for 30.4% of all Triad Cusd 2 student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Triad Cusd 2-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. 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.
Triad Cusd 2 school enrollment varies 8.6× across entities
Triad Cusd 2 school enrollment ranges from 141 students (lowest) to 1,218 students (highest), a spread of 1,077 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Triad Cusd 2 student-counselor ratio is 434:1 — high (typically 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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Triad Cusd 2 chronic absenteeism rate is 15.9% — 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 Triad Cusd 2 is typically wider than the Triad Cusd 2-aggregate figure suggests.
