Summary:

The 60552 zip code is home to a single elementary school, James R Wood Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 and has a total enrollment of 298 students. The school is part of the Somonauk CUSD 432 district, which is ranked 206 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

James R Wood Elementary School has shown mixed performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 862 out of 2,056 Illinois elementary schools in 2024-2025 (3-star rating) and 1,286 out of 2,067 in 2023-2024 (2-star rating). The school's proficiency rates in ELA and Math for all grades were higher than the state averages in 2024-2025, but its 4th-grade proficiency rates were lower than the state averages in both 2024-2025 and 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% in 2024-2025 was higher than the state average.

Despite these challenges, James R Wood Elementary School has some strengths, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.9 and higher per-student spending of $15,250 in 2023-2024, which may indicate a focus on providing additional support and resources to students. However, the school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (40.6% in 2023-2024) suggests a need to address potential socioeconomic challenges and ensure equitable access to educational resources.
