Summary

Schubert Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Chicago, Illinois, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 557 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.

Schubert Elementary School consistently performs below the Chicago Public Schools District 299 and Illinois state averages in standardized test scores across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 27.8% of Schubert students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 42.8% for the district and 53.1% for the state. The school also has significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates, with a 25.4% rate in the 2024-2025 school year, much higher than the district's 40.1% and the state's 36.0%. Schubert's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and students with disabilities.

When comparing Schubert Elementary School to the nearby schools in the same district, it becomes evident that Schubert is one of the lower-performing schools in the area. For example, Hanson Park Elementary School, located just 0.47 miles away, outperforms Schubert in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grades. While Schubert has increased its spending per student and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, these factors have not yet led to substantial improvements in student outcomes, suggesting that addressing the root causes of these issues, such as socioeconomic factors and attendance, may be crucial for the school to improve and better serve its student population.
