Sleepy Hollow Elementary School had the strongest all-grades elementary results: 64% in ELA and 61% in math, compared with 57% and 50% at Dundee Highlands Elementary School—gaps of 7 and 11 percentage points. Sleepy Hollow led in grades 3 and 4 in both subjects and in grade 5 math; Highlands’ exceptions were grade 5 ELA, where it led by 2 points, and grade 5 science, where it led by 5 points. Dundee Middle School had the highest reported all-grades ELA result, 66%, and scored 44% in math; it was 9 points above the state in ELA and 5 points above in math.
