Summary

Kingsley Elementary School serves 415 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Naperville, within Naperville CUSD 203. Its 2025–2026 test results are well above Illinois averages, but the most important finding for families comparing nearby schools is that Kingsley’s overall English language arts (ELA) and math results trail the averages at nearby schools and the district.

Kingsley’s strongest comparison is with the state: about 75% of students were proficient in ELA, versus 56% statewide, and 61% in math, versus 40% statewide. Locally, however, its ELA result was about 1 point below the nearby-school average, and math was 7 points below; seven of the 10 nearby schools scored higher in each subject. Fifth-grade science was also above the state result (about 69% versus 48%), but below the district (about 76%) and the nearby-school average (about 72%). Within Kingsley, grade-four ELA stands out at 83%, close to the district’s 84%; grade-five ELA was 71%, and math proficiency ranged from 56% to 70% across grades three through five. Attendance is a notable strength: chronic absenteeism was 5%, below the state’s 24%, district’s 13%, and every nearby school’s rate.

Results have risen overall since 2023–2024, but both subjects fell in the latest year: ELA moved from 69% to 80% to 75%, while math went from 57% to 74% to 61%. The SchoolDigger rating is four stars and the 82nd statewide percentile, down 15 percentile points from 2021–2022; the nearby-school average is about the 82nd percentile. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves Asian students stands out at the 23rd percentile, down from the 67th percentile in 2023–2024. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 12.5, compared with a nearby average of 13.8, and 16% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year, compared with 19% at nearby schools.
