Coolidge Elementary School faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges. The school's performance on the Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) in English Language Arts and Mathematics is consistently below the state average and the performance of the Lansing School District 158. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 42.4% of Coolidge students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 53.1% statewide and 40.1% in the district. In Mathematics, only 24.3% of Coolidge students were proficient or better, compared to 38.5% statewide and 21.6% in the district. The school's performance on the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA) for 5th grade is also below the state average, with only 31.7% of students proficient or better in 2024-2025. Additionally, Coolidge Elementary School has consistently high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 20.1% to 26.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Coolidge Elementary School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While Coolidge Elementary School outperforms some nearby schools in other districts, such as Greenwood Elementary School and New Beginnings Learning Academy, it generally performs lower than other schools in the Lansing School District 158, such as Oak Glen Elementary School and Reavis Elementary School, which have higher academic achievement and lower chronic absenteeism rates. The extremely high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Coolidge Elementary School, with 99.1% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, likely contributes to the school's academic challenges and high chronic absenteeism rates.
