Summary

Sunnydale Elementary School is a public K-6 school in Streamwood, Illinois, serving 280 students as part of the School District U-46. However, the school consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages, with low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and achievement gaps for certain student groups.

Sunnydale's academic struggles are evident across multiple metrics. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 47.2% of Sunnydale students were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 53.1% statewide, and just 38% were proficient in Math, similar to the state average. The school also has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 34.9% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. Sunnydale's performance is particularly low for female students and students with special needs, ranking in the bottom 40% and 20% of Illinois elementary schools, respectively.

Interestingly, nearby schools within the same School District U-46, such as Ridge Circle, Heritage, and Oakhill Elementary, also struggle academically and have similar low performance and high chronic absenteeism issues. In contrast, schools from the neighboring Schaumburg CCSD 54 district, like Albert Einstein and Anne Fox Elementary, significantly outperform Sunnydale and the rest of the School District U-46 schools.
