Summary

Strassburg Elementary is a public school in Sauk Village serving grades 3–5, with 406 students. In 2025–2026, 22% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 7% in math, and 13% of fifth graders in science. The ELA and math results were below both state and district levels, and science was also well below the state. The most important concern is that proficiency is low across subjects: Strassburg had the lowest reported nearby math result, and its ELA result was second-lowest.

Compared with the state, Strassburg was 35 percentage points lower in ELA and 32 points lower in math; it was also 5 points below its district, CCSD 168, in ELA and less than 1 point below it in math. Among nearby schools with reported all-grades scores, ELA ranged from 20% to 68%, with Medgar Evers Primary Academic Center the only one below Strassburg. All seven nearby schools with reported math results were higher. Fifth-grade science was 35 percentage points below the state and matched the district at 13%; nearby results at Washington-McKinley Elementary School and Garfield Elementary School were 35% and 47%. Nearby schools serve different grades, so their all-grades results are not perfectly comparable.

Scores have improved since 2023–2024, but not enough to close the state gap: ELA rose 6 points to 22% and math rose 4 points to 7%, while state results rose more; both Strassburg scores also dipped from their 2024–2025 peaks. SchoolDigger ranked the school at the 1st statewide percentile with 0 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 8th percentile the year before. Its ranking for African American students fell from the 40th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 0th in 2025–2026, a marked change in SchoolDigger’s measure of how well it serves that group. Other context: chronic absenteeism was 32%, versus 24% statewide, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 15.6. In 2024–2025, 56% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; this is context, not an explanation for the results.
