Summary

Hoover Wood Elementary School is a public elementary school in Batavia, Illinois, serving 350 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Batavia Unified School District 101, which is ranked 138 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hoover Wood Elementary School consistently outperforms the state and district averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate for all grades was 65.2%, compared to 65% for the district and 53.1% for the state. Similarly, the school's Mathematics proficiency rate for all grades was 67.7%, compared to 59.9% for the district and 38.5% for the state. The school also ranks in the top 25% of Illinois elementary schools for male students, white students, special education students, and disabled students in ELA and Mathematics proficiency.

While the school's chronic absenteeism rate has increased over the past few years, reaching 25.4% in the 2024-2025 school year, it remains lower than the state average of 26.3% for the same year. When compared to the nearby schools within the same district, such as H C Storm Elementary School, Hoover Wood Elementary School generally outperforms them in academic proficiency, student subgroup performance, and spending per student. This suggests the school may have effective practices that could be shared with other schools in the district. In contrast, the stark difference in academic performance between Hoover Wood Elementary School and the lower-performing schools in the neighboring Aurora East Unified School District 131 and Aurora West Unified School District 129, such as Mabel O Donnell Elementary School, Benavides Steam Academy, Goodwin Elementary School, and Schneider Elementary School, highlights the importance of equitable access to high-quality education across all communities.
