Summary

Glen Flora Elementary School serves 476 students in pre-K through fifth grade in Waukegan, Illinois, and is part of Waukegan CUSD 60. SchoolDigger places the district at the 3rd percentile statewide, with 0 stars; the school ranks 1,626th of 1,737 schools, at the 6th percentile, also with 0 stars. The most important concern is that the school’s ELA and fifth-grade science proficiency are far below state results.

Math is a relative bright spot compared with the district, but the school remains well below state and nearby-school results. In 2025–2026, all-grades math proficiency was 21% at Glen Flora, 1 percentage point above the district but 19 points below the state and 9 points below the 30% average at nine same-district elementary peers. ELA proficiency was 19%—10 points below the district, 37 below the state, and 16 below the peers’ 35% average. Fifth-grade science was weaker still: 11%, compared with 23% in the district and 48% statewide; it was 23 points below the nearby-school average among schools with reported results, and the lowest reported result.

Scores have risen since 2023–2024, but progress has not closed the gaps: ELA increased 7 points to 19%, while the state increased 15 points, widening the gap by 8 points. Math rose 12 points to 21%, slightly outpacing the state’s 11-point increase. SchoolDigger’s ranking fell from the 56th percentile in 2018–2019 and from the 14th in 2024–2025 to the current 6th percentile, though it is not the lowest among nearby schools with current rankings. The student-teacher ratio was 12.8 in 2024–2025, and 75% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves English Language Learner Students was notably higher than its overall standing: the group ranked at the 36th percentile in 2024–2025 versus 14th overall. Its African American Students ranking also rose, from the 1st percentile in 2023–2024 to the 22nd in 2024–2025.
