Summary:
ZIP code 60406 has one listed high school, DD Eisenhower High School (Campus), serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 1,818 students. Its 2025–2026 results show a broad academic challenge: the school scored below both Chsd 218 and the state on all nine reported tests. Its state gaps ranged from 14.2 percentage points in grade 10 math to 24.9 points in grade 9 science, making consistently lower test performance the area’s most important finding.
There is no local school leader or trailer to compare because only one high school is listed. Within the school’s results, math is the relative bright spot—not because scores reached state levels, but because the average gap was smaller: 17 points below the state across the three grade-and-test comparisons, versus 20 points in ELA and 21 in science. The school still trailed the state in every math result, including grade 10, where 22% were proficient compared with 36% statewide. Grade 9 science was the widest gap: 22% at the school compared with 47% statewide.
Recent results were mixed, with a notable setback in grade 9 science and gains in grade 10. Grade 9 science proficiency fell from 35% to 22% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, while grade 10 science rose from 26% to 33%; grade 10 math also improved, from 19% to 22%. SchoolDigger’s percentile ranking declined from 28 in 2023–2024 to 17 in 2025–2026. Other context for families: the 2025–2026 graduation rate was 78%, compared with 90% statewide, and chronic absenteeism was 34%, compared with 24%. In 2024–2025, 85% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 13.3:1; these are school observations, not explanations for its results.
