Summary

Clifford Johnson School is a public elementary school located in Warrenville, Illinois, serving 462 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Cusd 200 district, which is ranked 86 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Clifford Johnson School has shown mixed academic performance compared to the district and state averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (61.9%) and Mathematics (53.2%) were lower than the Cusd 200 district (76.9% and 61.1%) and the state of Illinois (53.1% and 38.5%). However, the school's performance has improved over the years, with proficiency rates increasing from the 2020-2021 school year. The school has also shown strong performance for certain student subgroups, ranking in the top 25% of Illinois elementary schools for White students, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

One area of concern for Clifford Johnson School is its relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.4% to 26.3% over the past few years, which is higher than the district and state averages. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 49.89% to 62.34% over the past few years, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families. Compared to nearby Wiesbrook Elementary School and Bower Elementary School, Clifford Johnson School's academic performance is generally lower, though the school's higher per-student spending suggests a need to evaluate the allocation of resources and their impact on student outcomes.
