Summary:
Hillside School District 93 in Illinois has only one elementary school, Hillside Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 455 students. Based on the available data, Hillside Elementary School appears to be a low-performing school, consistently ranking in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools over the past three years and earning a below-average 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Hillside Elementary School faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% and significantly below-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. The school serves a high-poverty student population, with 66.59% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $25,028, the school's academic performance remains poor, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to address the school's issues.
The data indicates that Hillside Elementary School would benefit from targeted interventions and support to address its specific challenges and improve student learning. Addressing factors such as instructional quality, school leadership, and student support services may be necessary to help the school better serve its students and community. While the school's performance is concerning, the data does not suggest any correlation between the school's performance and the racial makeup of its student population.
