Summary

Dunne Technology Academy Elementary School is a public school serving 198 students in grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, which is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299. The school consistently outperforms the district average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels, with 50.4% of students proficient or better in ELA and 24% proficient in Mathematics, compared to the district averages of 42.8% and 27.3%, respectively.

Dunne Technology Academy's performance is particularly strong for its African American and low socioeconomic status (SES) student populations, ranking in the top 86 out of 688 Illinois elementary schools and the top 655 out of 1,800 Illinois elementary schools for these subgroups, respectively. This suggests the school is effectively supporting the academic success of historically underserved student groups.

However, Dunne Technology Academy has seen fluctuations in its chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.2% to 40.1% over the past few years, which is generally higher than the district and state averages. This is an area of concern that the school should address through targeted interventions and strategies to improve student attendance. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, Dunne Technology Academy consistently outperforms them in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency, indicating the school's strong academic performance within the district.
