Summary:
The 60950 zip code area is home to three schools - Manteno Elementary School, Manteno High School, and Manteno Middle School - all part of the Manteno CUSD 5 district. The district is ranked 251 out of 811 in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Among the three schools, Manteno Middle School stands out for its consistently high performance on standardized tests, with 66.8% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 41.3% proficient or better in Mathematics, outpacing both the district and state averages. Manteno Elementary School also performs well above state averages in both subjects. However, all three schools have elevated chronic absenteeism rates, which may be impacting student learning and achievement.
While the schools generally perform well in English Language Arts, the mathematics proficiency rates lag behind, particularly at the middle and high school levels. Additionally, the relatively high free/reduced lunch rates at all three schools suggest the district serves a population with significant economic challenges, which is an important context to consider when interpreting the academic performance data. The district's ability to address these areas for improvement will be crucial for ensuring all students in the 60950 zip code area receive a high-quality education.
