Summary

Komensky Elementary School serves 320 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in Berwyn, a Chicago suburb. Its clearest recent success is in math, where proficiency has risen close to the state average; however, English language arts remains well below state results, making uneven achievement the school’s most important overall finding.

Math is a relative strength compared with nearby schools and the district: Komensky’s latest all-grades result was 38%, compared with 36% in Berwyn South School District 100, 40% statewide and a 31% average among nearby schools. Third-grade math stood out at 58%, above the state’s 49% and the district’s 51%. Results were weaker in other areas: all-grades English language arts was 44%, below the state’s 56% and the district’s 50%, though above the nearby-school average of 42%. Fourth-grade math was 31%, compared with 42% statewide and 38% districtwide. Fifth-grade science was 32%, below the state’s 48% and district’s 37%; six of eight nearby schools with results scored higher.

Both main subjects have improved over two years: all-grades math rose 24 percentage points, from 14% in 2023–2024 to 38% in 2025–2026, while ELA increased 17 points, from 27% to 44%. SchoolDigger places Komensky at the 31st statewide percentile with 2 stars, a middle position among nearby schools; the district is at the 21st percentile with 1 star. The student-teacher ratio was 10.9:1 in 2024–2025, and 86% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students was 50 in 2025–2026, compared with 31 overall, suggesting stronger relative standing in how the school serves that group. Its English Language Learner Students percentile fell from 65 in 2022–2023 to 33 in 2024–2025. The state suppressed Komensky’s 2025–2026 fifth-grade math result, so no score is available for comparison.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, June 24, 2011

The teachers at this school are hard working and willing to go the extra mile to help out the students. I do not care for the principal as she seems to have her own agenda and often does not reflect the best interest of the students and their education.

MOST of the students receive free and reduced lunch. The PTA is not as strong but is growing steadily. Close Quote
