Maple Elementary's 4th and 5th grade ELA proficiency rates significantly outperform the district and state averages. The school also has the highest 2-star rating from SchoolDigger among the 4 schools. While the other schools have some bright spots, such as Windsor Elementary's strong 3rd grade math performance and Loves Park Elementary's high 5th grade science scores, Maple Elementary is the clear standout in academic achievement.
However, the data also reveals significant challenges across the schools, including alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates of 25.4% on average, well below average proficiency rates in ELA, math, and science compared to the district and state, and high free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 61.1% to 79.95%. These factors suggest the need for a comprehensive approach to address the academic and attendance challenges faced by these elementary schools in the 61111 zip code.
