Summary:
The 60429 zip code area in Illinois is home to 4 elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. These schools, including Jesse C White Learning Academy, Mae Jemison School, Highlands Elementary School, and Chateaux School, face significant challenges in providing quality education to their students.
Among the 4 schools, Chateaux School and Highlands Elementary School stand out as the highest-performing, with rankings in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools and proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics that are above the other schools in the area. However, all 4 schools perform well below the state averages in these subjects, with particularly low Mathematics proficiency rates.
The schools in the 60429 zip code area face significant challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism and a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. These factors likely contribute to the schools' low academic performance and may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes. While the schools have relatively small class sizes, the data suggests that the Hazel Crest School District 152-5 and Prairie-Hills Education Service District 144 need to provide additional resources and support to these schools to help them better serve their students.
