Summary:
The 60015 zip code area is home to a cluster of high-performing elementary schools, with five schools serving students from the Deerfield School District 109 and the Bannockburn School District 106. These schools range in size from 170 students at Bannockburn School to 483 students at Wilmot Elementary School, and they consistently outperform state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency.
Among the standout schools in the area, South Park Elementary School, ranked 58th out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools in 2024-2025, boasts the highest performance with 85.7% proficiency in ELA and 82.6% in Math across all grades. Bannockburn School, part of the Bannockburn School District 106, also stands out, ranking 37th in the state and achieving 86.7% proficiency in ELA and 81.4% in Math, despite having a significantly higher per-student spending of $32,096 compared to the other schools in the area.
While the schools in the Deerfield School District 109 all perform well, there is some variation in their rankings and test scores, suggesting that even within a high-performing district, individual schools may differ in the quality of education they provide. The consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% across all schools in the area is an area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student attendance.
