Summary:
The 60402 zip code area in Illinois is home to 15 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school, spread across two school districts - Berwyn North School District 98 and Berwyn South School District 100. The data reveals a complex educational landscape, with pockets of high-performing schools alongside lower-achieving ones.
A few schools stand out in the area, including Edison Elementary School, which has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grades, and Piper School, an elementary school with strong academic performance. At the middle school level, Heritage Middle School stands out with high proficiency rates. In contrast, some schools, such as Komensky Elementary School and Emerson Elementary School, have significantly lower academic proficiency rates.
The data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance within the same zip code area, with a correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement. Additionally, the uniformly high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% across all schools is a significant issue that likely impacts learning and achievement. The differences in spending per student and the varying levels of academic achievement between the two school districts suggest the need for greater collaboration and sharing of best practices to improve overall educational outcomes for students in the 60402 zip code area.
