Summary

Spring Trail Elementary School serves 486 students in kindergarten through sixth grade in Carol Stream, within School District U-46. Its 2025–2026 all-grades proficiency was 71% in English language arts (ELA) and 56% in math—above both state and district results in each subject. The main takeaway is that Spring Trail’s overall test results are strong compared with state and district results, though performance varies by grade and subject.

Among nine nearby schools, Spring Trail ranked second in ELA and fourth in math: its results were 9 points above the nearby-school ELA average of 62% and 6 points above the math average of 51%. A closer look by grade highlights fourth-grade math as a concern: 43% were proficient, just 1 point above the state’s 42%; Spring Trail was below six nearby schools reporting that grade. Results were stronger in fifth- and sixth-grade math, at 56% and 57%. Fifth-grade science was 53%, above the state by 6 points and the district by 18, but 3 points below the nearby-school average; Spring Trail ranked eighth among the ten schools including itself. For example, fifth-grade math was nearly tied with Sycamore Trails Elementary School (56.2% versus 56.5%).

ELA rose 16 points from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026, while math gained 11 points overall after reaching a higher result in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger ranks Spring Trail in the 72nd statewide percentile with 4 stars, down from the 83rd percentile the year before; it is behind nearby Sycamore Trails and Centennial School. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 18.9, the highest among nearby schools, and 40% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism rose to 13% in 2025–2026, but remained below the state’s 24% and U-46’s 30%. SchoolDigger’s ranking for English Language Learner Students was especially strong, at the 95th percentile in both 2023–2024 and 2024–2025, compared with the school’s overall 82nd and 83rd percentiles. Its ranking for Female Students fell to the 57th percentile in 2025–2026, from the 79th percentile the year before, compared with an overall ranking of 72nd.
