Summary:
ZIP code 60646 has four Chicago elementary schools, all serving prekindergarten through grade 8 and part of Chicago Public Schools District 299. Their 2025–26 results vary widely: the schools’ all-grades ELA scores range from 56% to 83%, and math scores from 34% to 73%. The most important difference is between Sauganash Elementary School and Hitch Elementary School: Sauganash leads Hitch by 28 points in ELA and 38 points in math.
Sauganash stands out at the top, leading the four schools in all-grades ELA and math and in science for both reported grades; its scores are 27 points above the state in ELA and 33 points above in math. Edgebrook Elementary School ranks second in all-grades ELA and math, while Wildwood Elementary School ranks third; both are above the state in those subjects. Hitch is lowest in all-grades ELA and math, scoring just below the state in ELA and 5 points below in math, though it is above the state in both science grades. SchoolDigger ranks Sauganash 107th of 1,737 schools (94th percentile) and Hitch 1,058th (39th percentile).
Results have generally improved, especially in science: the four-school average rose 4 points in ELA from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while science averages increased 15 points in grade 5 and 11 points in grade 8. Math was more mixed, with the average up just 1 point. Grade-level results offer useful exceptions: Edgebrook leads grade 3 math and grade 6 ELA, and Wildwood leads grade 7 math. All four report free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25; the shares range from 11% at Wildwood to 50% at Hitch. Student–teacher ratios range from 13.2 at Hitch to 16.6 at Sauganash, so these measures provide context but do not track neatly with results.
