Summary

Bridgeview Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 428 students in grades K-6 in Bridgeview, Illinois, which is part of the Indian Springs School District 109. While the school has some areas of strength, it faces several academic challenges compared to state and district averages.

Bridgeview Elementary School's proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 51.4%, compared to 55.9% for the district and 53.1% for the state. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate was 32.6%, compared to 35.8% for the district and 38.5% for the state. The school's performance is particularly weak in Mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 22.6% to 45.1% across the grade levels. However, the school performs relatively well for African American and Hispanic students, ranking in the top 30% and top 32% of Illinois elementary schools, respectively, in the 2022-2023 school year.

Bridgeview Elementary School also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.0% to 26.3% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.17% to 66.74% over the past few years. While the school's per-student spending has increased and its student-teacher ratio is lower than the state average, these efforts have not yet translated into significantly improved academic outcomes. Compared to the nearby Frank A. Brodnicki Elementary School, which is also part of the Indian Springs School District 109, Bridgeview Elementary School's performance is generally weaker.
