Goodings Grove School

Public Grades PK, KG-1

Summary

Goodings Grove School is an elementary school located in Homer Glen, Illinois, serving grades 1-4 with a total enrollment of 414 students. The school is part of the Homer CCSD 33C district, which is ranked 177 out of 823 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Goodings Grove School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (83.33%) compared to the surrounding schools, its performance on standardized tests is lower than the district and state averages, particularly in 3rd grade. For example, in 2022-2023, only 32.1% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 38% for the district and 28.8% for the state. Additionally, Goodings Grove School has seen a sharp increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 2.5% in 2019-2020 to 15.7% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the surrounding schools. The school also has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at only 8.81% in 2021-2022.

Compared to nearby higher-performing schools like Palos West Elementary School and High Point Elementary School, Goodings Grove School's declining academic performance and increasing chronic absenteeism raise concerns about equity and the distribution of resources within the school and district. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs and demographics of the Goodings Grove School community.
