Summary

Isaac Singleton Elementary School serves 304 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Joliet, in Joliet PSD 86. In 2025–2026, its all-grade proficiency was 31% in English language arts (ELA) and 15% in math, well below state results of 56% and 40%. The most important takeaway is that Isaac’s ELA and math results remain substantially below state averages.

Science is a relative strength: fifth-grade proficiency was 41%, 8 points above the district’s 34%, though 6 points below the state’s 48%. Isaac ranked fifth among eight nearby same-district schools with reported all-grade results in both ELA and math; its ELA result of 31% was close to the peer median of 33%, while its math result of 15% was 4 points below the median of 20%. Results vary by grade, too: fifth-grade ELA was 41%, 5 points above the district’s fifth-grade result, while fourth-grade ELA was 26%, below four nearby schools, including Eisenhower Academy and three others with reported results.

ELA has improved, rising from 19% in 2023–2024 to 23% in 2024–2025 and 31% in 2025–2026; its gap with the state narrowed by 5 points last year, but remains 3 points wider than in 2023–2024. Math slipped from 18% to 15% over the latest two years. SchoolDigger ranks Isaac at the 13th percentile statewide with 1 star, unchanged from 2024–2025; nearby rankings range from the 2nd percentile at Edna Keith Elementary School and Sator Sanchez Elementary School to the 100th at Eisenhower Academy. Its 9.9:1 student-teacher ratio was the lowest among the supplied same-district schools, and chronic absenteeism was 21% in 2025–2026, below district and state rates. Free/reduced lunch eligible students made up 95% of enrollment in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show stronger relative standing for Hispanic students, at the 36th percentile in 2025–2026 versus 13th overall, while its English-learner ranking fell to the 33rd percentile in 2024–2025 from 50th in 2022–2023. The state suppressed grade 4 and grade 5 math results, so those scores are unavailable.
