Summary:

The city of Hodgkins, Illinois has only one school, Hodgkins Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and is part of the La Grange School District 105 South. While the district is ranked 207 out of 811 in Illinois and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Hodgkins Elementary School has been struggling in recent years, with its performance declining and its statewide ranking dropping from 1162 out of 2077 Illinois elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 867 out of 2056 in 2024-2025.

The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with the exception of 5th-grade Mathematics, where the school outperformed the district and state. Additionally, the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate is also lower than the district and state averages. These performance issues are concerning, especially given the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 78.52% in the 2023-2024 school year.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $30,602 in the 2023-2024 school year and the low student-teacher ratio of 6.9 to 1, the school's academic performance remains below the district and state averages. This suggests that simply allocating more resources may not be the sole solution to improving the school's outcomes. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year is also a significant concern that may be contributing to the school's overall performance challenges.
