Summary

Martin Elementary School serves 776 students in grades 3–5 in Lake in the Hills, in a community with several nearby elementary schools for comparison. In 2025–2026, 76% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA) and 62% in math, both above state and district results. Its clearest local standout is ELA: Martin had the highest all-grades ELA proficiency among nearby schools with reported results.

Martin’s ELA rate was 19 points above the state and 1 point above the Huntley Community School District 158; math was 22 points above the state and 4 points above the district. Math was strong, but not the area’s top result: Leggee Elementary School and Lincoln Prairie Elementary School scored higher. Within Martin, grade 3 ELA stood out at 70%, 5 points above the district, while grade 4 math was 3 points below the district and grade 5 ELA was 1 point below. Absenteeism is another positive: 10% of students were chronically absent, compared with 18% districtwide and 24% statewide; only Woods Creek Elementary School had a lower rate among the nearby schools.

Results have risen over the past three reported years: ELA increased from 45% to 67% to 76%, and math from 42% to 57% to 62%. SchoolDigger rated Martin 4 stars and placed it at the 81st statewide percentile in 2025–2026, just below Leggee’s 84th percentile. Its student-teacher ratio was 13.4 in 2024–2025, near the nearby-school average of 13.1; 28% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, also near the local average of 29%. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a notable strength and concern: African American Students ranked at the 95th percentile in 2024–2025, compared with Martin’s overall 80th percentile, while Special Education Students ranked at the 9th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with 81st overall.

Thursday, September 25, 2014

I have my son going to this school for the first time. I have several opportunities to interact with the staff and the teachers. I must say that they have a group of dedicated and talented people taking care of the children.

As far as academics, my son feel right at home. He is confident and able to discuss anything with his teacher. I would rate ten stars. Unfortunately, the software limits me! Close Quote
