Summary

Disney II Magnet High School in Chicago serves 738 students in grades 7–12 and is part of Chicago Public Schools District 299. Its latest results show a mixed academic picture: all-grades math proficiency is above the district rate, while ELA is close to the district rate, and performance differs by grade and subject. The clearest concern alongside a strong graduation rate is attendance: 52% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, compared with 39% districtwide and 24% statewide.

Science and 11th-grade ELA are bright spots, while high-school math is the most consistent academic weakness. In 2025–2026, all-grades IAR proficiency was 44% in ELA—2 points below the district and 12 below the state—and 35% in math, 6 points above the district but 5 below the state. Eighth-grade science reached 57%, above both district and state rates; 11th-grade ACT science and ELA were also above both. By contrast, PreACT math proficiency was 17% in grade 10 and 24% in grade 9, below district and state results. Among nearby schools, Lane Technical High School was far ahead in all-grades IAR, with 99% proficiency in both subjects, while Intrinsic Charter High School had 58% in ELA and 16% in math.

Results have shifted: ELA rose from 43% in 2023–2024 to 65% the next year, then fell to 44% in 2025–2026; math rose from 21% to 35% over the two-year period. The graduation rate was 94% in 2025–2026, above the district’s 83% and state’s 90%. SchoolDigger ranked the school 358th of 620 statewide, at the 42nd percentile with 2 stars, down from the 52nd percentile the prior year. Its student-teacher ratio was 8.5 in 2024–2025, the lowest among the nearby schools compared, and 47% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s relative rankings suggest stronger results in serving some groups than its overall standing: the school ranked at the 85th percentile for White Students and 79th for African American Students, compared with the overall 42nd percentile.
