Lake Zurich Middle - N Campus

Public Grades 6-8

97^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,126 Illinois Middle Schools

Better than 91% of Illinois middle schools

Summary

Lake Zurich Middle - N Campus serves 697 students in grades 6–8 in Hawthorn Woods and is part of Lake Zurich CUSD 95. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates—83% in English language arts (ELA), 66% in math and 72% in eighth-grade science—are well above state levels. The clearest local takeaway is that Lake Zurich Middle - S Campus currently scores higher in both ELA and math.

The school is among the stronger nearby performers, ranking third of 11 schools in both all-grade ELA and math. ELA is a relative strength: its 83% proficiency rate is 27 points above the state and just 1 point below the district. Math is the weaker subject compared with its district, at 66%—26 points above the state but 6 points below the district. S Campus leads N Campus by 7 points in ELA and 8 in math. Eighth-grade math is a particular concern: proficiency is 58%, down 13 points from grade 7, below the district’s 65%, and fourth among nearby schools. Eighth-grade science is 72%, above the state’s 52% and nearby average of 67%, but ranks fifth locally, behind Woodlawn Middle School and others.

ELA and math results have risen over the three reported years: ELA went from 73% to 79% to 83%, and math from 56% to 63% to 66%. Even so, the school’s lead over the state narrowed slightly as state results also improved. SchoolDigger gives N Campus five stars and a 91st-percentile statewide ranking, down from the 94th percentile in 2021–22 and 2022–23. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 12.6, compared with a nearby average of 12.1; 23% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, below the 31% average among nearby schools with matching data. SchoolDigger’s Disabled Students ranking, a measure of how well the school serves this group, fell to the 45th percentile from the 95th in each of the prior two years; the latest comparison included 40 schools, versus 694 the previous year, so interpret that change cautiously.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, September 14, 2012

This school is amazing! From the teachers to the principal and admin people, to the activities and PTO/volunteer parents, all are top notch people. Everyone goes beyond the necessary or expected degree of being friendly, welcoming and helpful. I've moved four times in the past 10 years and my three kids have been in four schools, including two private. This school outshines all of them. My kids are so happy and that means mama's happy! Most importantly, they are doing so well academically. There extra programs are amazing, music, sports, arts, etc. I was surprised to find the transportation so organized; there is an early bus and a late bus for all these extra activities. Close Quote
