New Hope Elementary School is a standout institution, ranking in the top 10% of Illinois elementary schools and outperforming both the district and state averages in key metrics. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school achieved an impressive 79.6% proficiency rate in English Language Arts and a 72.5% proficiency rate in Mathematics, far surpassing the state averages of 53.1% and 38.5%, respectively.

While the school's academic excellence is evident, the data also reveals some potential equity concerns.

The district and school leadership may need to address these challenges to ensure all students have the opportunity to thrive academically.
