Summary

Peterson Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, with an enrollment of 899 students.

Peterson Elementary School's academic performance is generally below the district and state averages across all grades and subjects. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 49.3% of Peterson students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 42.8% for the Chicago Public Schools District 299 and 53.1% for the state.
