Summary

Liberty Elementary School in Carpentersville, Illinois, serves pre-K through grade 5, enrolls 749 students, and is part of Cusd 300. Its 2025–26 all-grade proficiency was above district and state results in both ELA and math, but the clearest concern is the sharp gap between third grade and the stronger fourth- and fifth-grade results.

Third grade is Liberty’s weakest point: 40% were proficient in ELA and 42% in math, below state results by 8 and 7 percentage points, respectively. By fifth grade, proficiency reached 74% in ELA and 60% in math, exceeding state results by 19 and 24 points. Overall, Liberty’s ELA proficiency of 60% was 6 points above the nearby K–5 school average, while its 51% in math was about even with that average; it ranked fourth of eight schools in ELA and fifth of eight in math. Math was stronger against state and district benchmarks: Liberty’s 51% compared with 40% statewide and 39% in the district. Fifth-grade science was another bright spot, at 61% proficient, 13 points above the state; among nearby schools with reported results, only Kenneth E Neubert Elementary School and Westfield Community School scored higher. The nearby all-grade averages exclude Westfield because it serves through grade 8.

Across 2023–24 to 2025–26, Liberty gained 27 percentage points in ELA and 14 in math, but the latest year brought declines of 2 points in ELA and 7 in math. SchoolDigger placed Liberty at the 60th percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, fifth among the nine listed schools, down from the 75th percentile and 4 stars the year before. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 16.2, the highest in the nearby group. In that same school year, 45% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with an average of 52% at the other schools reporting the measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide group rankings also show notable movement: its English Language Learner Students ranking rose to the 82nd percentile in 2024–25 from the 45th percentile in 2023–24, while its Hispanic Students ranking fell to the 62nd percentile in 2025–26 from the 85th percentile the year before.
