The Richmond-Burton Community High School District 157 has announced the opening of its Rockets Summer Sports Camps, offering activities for students at both youth and high school levels. The camps aim to provide opportunities for students to remain active, develop athletic skills, and engage with coaches and athletes from the district.
The district serves McHenry County and includes Richmond-Burton High School, according to the Illinois Report Card (https://www.illinoisreportcard.com/). A full list of camp offerings, dates, and details is available through the district.
Richmond-Burton Community High School District 157 has a teaching staff of 43, with an average salary of $65,602 before pension contributions. The faculty is comprised of 54.3 percent women and 45.7 percent men, with no teachers exceeding ten absences in a school year (https://www.illinoisreportcard.com/).
Demographically, the student body is 85.9 percent White, 0.3 percent Black, 9.8 percent Hispanic, and 1.8 percent Asian (https://www.illinoisreportcard.com/).
In terms of spending, the district allocated $29,755 per student in 2020 for a total expenditure of $18,180,232 (https://www.illinoisreportcard.com/).
The district reported that in the 2020 school year there were sixteen “chronically truant” students enrolled—a rate of 2.6 percent—well below the statewide average of 9.6 percent (https://www.illinoisreportcard.com/). The Illinois State Board of Education defines chronically truant students as those missing five percent or more of mandated school days without valid excuse.
