Summary

The school is part of Community Consolidated School District 89, which is ranked 142 out of 811 school districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Westfield Elementary School consistently outperforms the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, 65.6% of Westfield students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 53.1%. In Mathematics, 61.7% of Westfield students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 38.5%. However, the school's performance for low socioeconomic status (SES) students is a notable area of concern, ranking in the bottom 2% of Illinois elementary schools in this category for the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, Westfield Elementary School has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 9.7% in 2022-2023 to 25.4% in 2024-2025, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to other schools in the same district, such as Briar Glen Elementary and Park View Elementary, Westfield Elementary School performs well. However, when compared to schools in neighboring districts, such as Benjamin Franklin Elementary (Glen Ellyn School District 41) and Belle Aire Elementary (Downers Grove GSD 58), Westfield's performance, particularly in Mathematics, lags behind these higher-performing schools.
