SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,737 Illinois Elementary Schools

Better than 19% of Illinois elementary schools

Summary

LEARN Charter - Hunter Perkins Campus is a K–8 school in Chicago serving 472 students in an area with several nearby elementary schools. In 2025–2026, 44% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 26% in math, below the district and state in both subjects. The most important local finding is that the school had the highest reported all-grade ELA and math results among nearby schools.

ELA is the school’s stronger subject compared with district and state results: its 44% proficiency was 2 points below Chicago Public Schools District 299 and 12 points below the state. In math, its 26% was 3 points below the district and 14 points below the state. Some grade-level results show particular strengths: ELA proficiency in grades 6 and 7 was 55% and 56%, respectively, above district results in both grades; grade 7 also topped nearby schools with reported scores. The weaker spots were grade 5 ELA, at 24% versus 42% for the district and 55% for the state, and grade 4 math, at 17%—12 points below the district. Results vary by grade, and some state-suppressed values cannot be compared.

Math has improved steadily, rising from 10% in 2023–2024 to 22% in 2024–2025 and 26% in 2025–2026; its gap with the state narrowed over that period. ELA rose overall from 36% to 44%, but fell from 49% in the latest year and is now farther behind the state than it was two years earlier. SchoolDigger rated the school 1 star and placed it at the 19th percentile in 2025–2026, down from the 37th percentile and 2 stars the prior year. Its student-teacher ratio was 20.5 in 2024–2025, the highest among nearby schools. In that same year, 81% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below the nearby-school average of 86%. One notable change in SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well it serves African American students: the group’s percentile fell from 81 in 2024–2025 to 31 in 2025–2026; the school’s overall percentile was 19 in the latest year.
