Summary

Haley Elementary Academy is a public elementary school in Chicago, Illinois, serving 447 students in grades PK-8. The school is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299, which is ranked 698 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Haley Elementary Academy has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state in academic proficiency, with only 26.6% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 11.8% proficient or better in Mathematics in the 2024-2025 school year. The school also struggles to support its diverse student population, with lower performance across subgroups like African American and special education students. Additionally, Haley has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 40.8% over the past few years, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

While Haley Elementary Academy faces significant challenges, the school's relatively high per-student spending and student-teacher ratio suggest that it may have the resources to improve. Nearby schools, such as Curtis Elementary School and Dunne Technology Academy Elementary School, also struggle with low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism, but some perform slightly better in certain areas, indicating that there may be opportunities for Haley to learn from their practices and implement effective strategies to drive academic improvement.
