Elementary Schools in South Holland School District 151

Summary:

The South Holland School District 151 in Illinois is home to three elementary schools: Taft School, Madison School, and Eisenhower School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and face significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the extremely high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients across all three schools.

Among the standout schools, Madison School has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 1509th out of 2077 Illinois elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 1147th out of 2056 in 2024-2025, with a rating of 2 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars. In the 2024-2025 school year, Madison School outperformed the South Holland School District 151 and the state of Illinois in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency for all grades, 4th grade, and 5th grade. Meanwhile, Eisenhower School showed strong Mathematics proficiency in 2024-2025, with 46.4% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Despite these pockets of success, the data indicates that all three schools in the South Holland School District 151 consistently underperformed the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with the exception of Eisenhower School's strong Mathematics performance. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and the relatively high spending per student across the district, coupled with the underperformance, suggest that there may be opportunities to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation and explore ways to better target resources to improve student outcomes.
