Summary

Lake Louise Elementary School is a public elementary school in Palatine, Illinois, serving 952 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Palatine CCSD 15 district, which is ranked 415 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $12,834 to $18,717 over the past few years, Lake Louise Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 32.4% of students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 55.1% for the district and 53.1% for the state. In Mathematics, the proficiency rate was even lower at 23.7%, compared to 42.9% for the district and 38.5% for the state. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom quartile of Illinois elementary schools for Hispanic students and English Language Learners in ELA proficiency.

When comparing Lake Louise Elementary to nearby schools within the same district, such as Gray M Sanborn Elementary School and Lincoln Elementary School, the academic performance gap is evident, with these nearby schools consistently outperforming Lake Louise in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency. The gap is even more pronounced when comparing Lake Louise to schools in the higher-performing Arlington Heights School District 25, such as Ivy Hill Elementary School, which had 74.7% of students proficient or better in ELA in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to only 32.4% at Lake Louise.

Open Quote This school needs an upgrade as far as finding innovative leadership to run this school. There are not enough extracurricular activities provided (unless you are in 5th grade or higher). Boy/Girl Scouts have practically been pushed out of the school by the assistant principal and her lack of wanting to coordinate or accommodate a schedule. There are definitely better schools located within the district. Close Quote
