Summary:

Bolingbrook has 14 schools—10 elementary, three middle and one high school—with 12 in Valley View CUSD 365U, plus Liberty Elementary in Plainfield School District 202 and Wayne Builta Elementary in Indian Prairie CUSD 204. The clearest area-wide takeaway is how much elementary results vary: the range spans 42 points in ELA and 48 points in mathematics.

Builta is the elementary standout, leading in 2025–2026 ELA at 79%, mathematics at 76% and grade 5 science at 78%. Its ELA and math scores were 19 and 31 points above the elementary-school averages, respectively; SchoolDigger ranked it in the 93rd percentile statewide. At the other end, Independence had the lowest elementary ELA and math scores, 37% and 28%—23 and 17 points below the group averages. Among middle schools, Jane Addams led in ELA (70%) and math (45%), while Humphrey led grade 8 science (48%).

Recent movement is mixed: elementary ELA averaged 2 points higher in 2025–2026 than the year before, but mathematics fell 2 points; the elementary average remained above the state in both subjects, while grade 5 science was below it. Middle-school ELA rose by about 1 point, and math by 2, though only ELA averaged above the state. SchoolDigger’s rankings also show contrasting paths: Independence fell from the 45th to the 15th percentile from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026, while Ward rose from the 32nd to the 46th. Income figures are context, not explanations: free/reduced lunch eligible, sy 2024–2025, was 13% at Builta and 77% at Ward, whose ELA score was above the state.
