Summary:
ZIP code 60433 has seven schools—six elementary and one middle—serving grades from 1–5 through K–8 and 6–8. In 2025–2026, their average all-grades proficiency was 50% in ELA and 37% in math, compared with statewide results of 56% and 40%. Those averages conceal a sharp divide: the most important finding is how much results differ from school to school.
Eisenhower Academy led by a wide margin, with 95% proficient in both ELA and math—24 points above the next-highest ELA result and 43 points above the next-highest math result, at Union Elementary School. Eisenhower also had the strongest reported fifth-grade science result, 97%, compared with 42% at the next-highest school. Union was second in all-grades ELA and math, at 71% and 52%. At the other end, Edna Keith Elementary School had the lowest results: 19% in ELA and 14% in math, 13 and 6 points below the next-lowest schools, respectively. Its fifth-grade science result, 18%, was also the lowest reported.
Scores generally improved, but not equally: all seven schools raised ELA results from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, and their average rose 5 points, while the average math result rose 3 points. Five schools improved in math, but Union fell 9 points and Woodland Elementary School fell 2; fifth-grade science improved at all five schools with results in both years. SchoolDigger ranked Eisenhower 7th of 1,737 schools, with five stars, and Edna Keith 1,707th, with no stars; Union ranked 358th with four stars. Other context does not neatly predict results: Laraway School had the lowest student-teacher ratio, 8.1, but 26% proficiency in math. Among schools reporting free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–2025, results ranged from Union at 37% to Woodland at 95%; these figures describe the schools, not the cause of their test results.
