Summary

Forest View Elementary School is a public elementary school in Mount Prospect, Illinois, serving 325 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Community Consolidated School District 59, which is ranked 487 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Forest View Elementary consistently ranks in the top 25% of Illinois elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are significantly higher than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 60.7% of all students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 46% for the district and 53.1% for the state. Forest View's 5th-grade students also consistently outperform the district and state in ELA, Mathematics, and Science, with proficiency rates ranging from 56.1% to 70%. The school's male students and English Language Learner (ELL) students have performed exceptionally well, ranking in the top 10% and top 3% of Illinois elementary schools, respectively.

While Forest View Elementary's overall academic performance is impressive, the school's higher per-student spending of around $21,775 and low student-teacher ratio suggest that it is well-resourced. When compared to nearby schools in the Mount Prospect School District 57, such as Fairview Elementary and Lions Park Elementary, Forest View generally outperforms its peers in academic performance. However, the school's leadership and district should continue to monitor and address any persistent achievement gaps among student subgroups to ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.
