Summary

Fairfield Elementary Academy is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, with an enrollment of 467 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.

Fairfield Elementary Academy consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Illinois elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 25.9% of Fairfield students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 42.8% for the district and 53.1% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in mathematics, with only 4.9% of students proficient or better, compared to 27.3% for the district and 38.5% for the state. Fairfield's struggles extend to its diverse student population, with subgroups such as African American and Hispanic students ranking in the bottom 20-30% of Illinois elementary schools.

While nearby schools in the same district, such as Marquette Elementary School, Claremont Academy Elementary School, and Earle Elementary School, generally perform better than Fairfield Elementary Academy, the school's consistently low performance over the past several years suggests a need for significant intervention and support to address the root causes of its challenges, which may include high chronic absenteeism rates and limited resources.
