Summary:
The 60827 zip code area is home to 13 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, spread across three different school districts. While the data reveals some standout schools, the overall academic performance in this area is concerning, with most schools struggling to meet state proficiency standards.
Among the standout schools, Carver Military Academy High School stands out with the highest 4-year graduation rate at 93.8% and the lowest dropout rate at 1.8%. Additionally, Park Elementary School has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts across multiple grade levels compared to other elementary schools in the data set.
However, the majority of schools in the 60827 zip code area face significant challenges. Academic performance is generally low, with most schools reporting proficiency rates well below state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. Chronic absenteeism is also a major issue, with several schools reporting rates over 40%. These schools serve a student population that faces significant economic challenges, with many schools reporting over 90% of their students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing these disparities will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs and circumstances of the local communities.
