Elementary Schools in Harlem UD 122

Summary:

The Harlem UD 122 school district in Illinois contains 9 elementary schools serving grades pre-K/K through 6th, with student populations ranging from 266 to 562. While the district as a whole is ranked 625 out of 811 school districts in Illinois and rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, a few schools within the district stand out as performing better than the district and state averages.

Olson Park Elementary School ranks 633 out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools and is rated 3 out of 5 stars, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (61.3% vs. 42.2% district, 53.1% state) and Mathematics (48.8% vs. 27.9% district, 38.5% state) across all grades. Maple Elementary School and Loves Park Elementary School also perform relatively well, ranking 1,327 and 1,317 out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools, respectively.

However, the data reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools in the district, such as Rock Cut Elementary School, Windsor Elementary School, and Machesney Elementary School. Additionally, the district as a whole struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance across the district. Addressing these disparities and improving attendance should be priorities for the Harlem UD 122 district.
