Summary:
The 60130 zip code in Illinois is home to a single middle school, Forest Park Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Forest Park School District 91. While the school has shown some strengths in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, it has struggled with math performance, with proficiency rates below the district and state averages. The school's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, and it currently holds a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Forest Park Middle School has 184 students enrolled and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2. The school's academic performance is mixed, with ELA proficiency rates ranging from 45.1% for 6th grade to 78.1% for 8th grade, while math proficiency rates are lower, ranging from 21.6% for 6th grade to 29.9% for 7th grade. Science proficiency for 8th grade, however, is 57.4%, which is above the district and state averages. The school also has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with a 48.37% free/reduced lunch rate.
Despite the school's challenges, it does have some positive attributes, such as the low student-teacher ratio and the strong ELA performance. However, the inconsistent statewide ranking and the need for improvement in math suggest that the school may require additional resources or support to help all students reach their full potential. Parents and community members may want to closely monitor the school's progress and advocate for the necessary interventions to address the areas of concern.
