Summary:
The 60631 zip code area of Chicago, Illinois is home to 6 schools, including 5 elementary schools and 1 high school, all part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299. While the district as a whole is ranked 698 out of 811 in Illinois and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, several schools in the 60631 area stand out as high-performing.
Ebinger Elementary School, Onahan Elementary School, Edison Park Elementary School, and Norwood Park Elementary School are all ranked in the top 25% of Illinois elementary schools and rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. These schools outperform the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across multiple grade levels. In contrast, Taft High School also performs well, with a 89.0% four-year graduation rate and 2.4% dropout rate, while outperforming the district and state in test scores.
However, the data also reveals some areas of concern, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% across all schools and varying levels of economic disadvantage among the student populations, as indicated by the range in free/reduced lunch rates from 14.74% to 54.46%. The higher spending per student at the elementary schools compared to the high school may contribute to their stronger academic outcomes, as well as the smaller student-teacher ratios. Overall, the schools in the 60631 zip code area demonstrate a mix of high-performing and lower-performing institutions, with the four elementary schools standing out as the strongest performers.
