Summary

Piccolo Elementary Specialty School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, with an enrollment of 635 students. 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.

Piccolo Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Illinois elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments in both English Language Arts and Math. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 29.9% of Piccolo students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 42.8% for the district and 53.1% statewide. In Math, the proficiency rate was just 10.2% at Piccolo, versus 27.3% for the district and 38.5% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 40.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Interestingly, the schools in the immediate vicinity of Piccolo Elementary, such as Casals Elementary and KIPP One Academy, generally perform better academically, with significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math, as well as lower chronic absenteeism. This suggests that Piccolo may be struggling to provide the same level of educational opportunities as its neighboring schools, despite having similar per-student spending and resources.
