Summary:

The 60136 school list has one school, Gilberts Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 5, with 729 students. There is no school-to-school comparison in the list. The clearest result is in math: in 2025–2026, 52% of students were proficient, 12 percentage points above the state, while all-grades ELA proficiency was 3 points below the state.

With only one school, there is no separate top or bottom school; within Gilberts, math is the standout and fourth-grade ELA is the clearest relative weakness. Math proficiency exceeded the state in every tested grade: by 11 points in grade 3, 9 points in grade 4, and 9 points in grade 5. ELA was above the state in grades 3 and 5, by 1 and 4 points, but 5 points below in grade 4. Fifth-grade science was another bright spot: proficiency reached 51%, 3 points above the state in 2025–2026.

Recent trends are mixed rather than uniformly improving: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 1 point at Gilberts while rising 3 points statewide, math rose 1 point and remained well above the state, and fifth-grade science climbed 7 points. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking percentile declined from 68 in 2023–2024 to 53 in 2025–2026, although that ranking is different from subject test results. Other context includes chronic absenteeism of 12% in 2025–2026, compared with 24% statewide, a 15.5 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025, and 33% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025.
