Summary

Jane Addams Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 445 students in grades PK-6 in Palatine, Illinois, which is part of the Palatine CCSD 15 district. While the district is ranked 415 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, Jane Addams Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state on standardized tests.

In the 2024-2025 school year, only 32.9% of all students at Jane Addams Elementary School were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 55.1% for the district and 53.1% for the state. In math, only 27.4% of all students were proficient or better, compared to 42.9% for the district and 38.5% for the state. The school also struggles with significant achievement gaps for certain student subgroups, such as female students, male students, and low socioeconomic status students, who all perform at much lower rates than their peers in the district and state.

When comparing Jane Addams Elementary School to other nearby schools in the same district, such as Stuart R Paddock School, which is only 1.96 miles away, it is clear that Jane Addams is underperforming. The school's high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 17.1% to 26.3% over the past few years, and its very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 61.26% to 66.67%, may be contributing factors to the lower academic performance. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach to support the unique needs of the school's student population.
