Summary:
The list covers one school, LEARN John and Kathy Schreiber Charter School, an elementary school serving kindergarten through grade 8, with 519 students. With no other schools in the list, the figures show how the school compares with Illinois rather than how it compares with nearby schools. Its clearest strength is English language arts (ELA): 2025–26 proficiency was 76%, 19 percentage points above the state’s 56%.
The school’s results stand out most in ELA, while mathematics is a more mixed picture. ELA proficiency was higher than Illinois’ in every reported grade from 3 through 8; the largest lead was in grade 3, at 26 points. All-grades mathematics was 43%, 4 points above the state’s 40%, but the school was 7 points below the state in grade 3 and 5 points below in grade 4, then ahead in grades 6–8. Because the list includes only this school and its 2025–26 grade 5 mathematics and science results were suppressed, there is no local school ranking and those grade 5 scores cannot be reported.
Results improved overall, especially in mathematics, though ELA remains the stronger subject. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, ELA rose from 66% to 76%, while its lead over Illinois grew from 13 to 19 points. Mathematics rose from 35% to 43%, moving from 4 points below the state to 4 points above. Grade 8 science also improved, from 35% to 59%, shifting from 10 points below Illinois to 7 points above. Chronic absenteeism was lower than the state rate—11% compared with 24%. SchoolDigger lists the school at 3 stars and the 67th percentile; its supplied history shows percentiles of 68, 54, and 66 from 2023–24 through 2025–26, indicating a rebound from 2024–25 but not quite to its earlier standing. Context figures include a student–teacher ratio of 12 in 2024–25 and 84% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25.
