SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 elementary rankings place Jane Addams at the top locally, at the 59th percentile, followed by Hamilton at the 55th; these are relative rankings, not proficiency scores. As context, 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch-eligible shares were 46% at Jane Addams and 60% at Hamilton, while Lincoln-Irving’s was 88%; those figures describe the schools and do not explain their results.
