Summary

Churchill Elementary School serves 618 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Glen Ellyn, as part of Glen Ellyn School District 41; its most important distinction is that, although its 2025–26 proficiency rates were above state rates, they were notably below district and nearby same-district results, especially in grade 5 science.

Churchill Elementary School is strongest relative to the state in math: 55% of students were proficient, 16 percentage points above the state rate, while 62% were proficient in ELA, 6 points above the state. Grade 5 science proficiency was 49%, just 2 points above the state. Compared with the district, the school was 15 points lower in ELA, 14 points lower in math and 17 points lower in grade 5 science. Nearby same-district schools averaged 76% in ELA, 75% in math and 72% in grade 5 science—14, 20 and 23 points above Churchill, respectively. Among nearby K–5 schools, Churchill’s grade 5 math result was second-lowest; its 47% proficiency was above the state rate but 26 points below the same-district schools’ average.

Results have risen substantially since 2023–24: ELA proficiency increased from 34% to 62%, and math from 30% to 55%, though math was nearly flat in the latest year. SchoolDigger ranked the school at the 62nd statewide percentile and gave it 3 stars in 2025–26, down 8 percentile points from the previous year despite the longer-term test-score gains. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 12.4, close to the nearby-school average of 12.2. As historical context, 43% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2021–22, compared with an average of 12% at three same-district schools reporting the measure that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Asian Students was 17th percentile in 2025–26, 45 points below the school’s overall percentile, a notable difference in its measure of how well the school serves this group. Its ranking for English Language Learner Students rose from the 14th percentile in 2023–24 to the 61st in 2024–25, a sharp improvement in that measure.

Great school with amazing students and teachers that all care for each other and work together. The program option of Spanish immersion classes starting in K is amazing. Could not have a better environment for a wonderful learning community. Close Quote
