Summary

Mozart Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, with 482 students. It is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299, which is ranked 698 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Mozart Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Illinois elementary schools over the past decade, also earning a 1-star rating.

The school significantly underperforms compared to the district and state in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 34.7% of Mozart students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 42.8% for the district and 53.1% for the state. In Math, only 11.9% of Mozart students were proficient or better, compared to 27.3% for the district and 38.5% for the state. Additionally, Mozart Elementary has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 43.6% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Mozart Elementary School is located in a neighborhood with several other low-performing schools, including Funston Elementary School and Nixon Elementary School, which also struggle with academic achievement and high chronic absenteeism rates. Despite increased spending per student, Mozart Elementary School has not shown meaningful improvement in its academic performance or other key metrics over the past decade, highlighting the broader challenges facing the Chicago Public Schools District 299.
