Best Public Schools in Carpentersville, IL

Summary:

The city of Carpentersville, Illinois is home to 9 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in educational outcomes within the Carpentersville area, with some schools like Liberty Elementary School and Sunny Hill Elementary School performing much better than others like Lakewood School and Perry Elementary School.

Dundee-Crown High School, the only high school in the data set, stands out with a strong 92.6% four-year graduation rate, higher than the state average. However, its test scores are lower than the state average, with only 14.7% of 11th graders proficient or better in Math and 19.2% in English Language Arts. The wide range in per-student spending, from $11,924 at Liberty Elementary to $24,555 at Sunny Hill Elementary, may contribute to the performance differences between schools.

The data also reveals high chronic absenteeism rates, especially at the secondary level, which likely impact student learning and achievement. Addressing attendance issues could be an important area of focus for the Carpentersville CUSD 300 district. Additionally, the stronger performance of Sunny Hill Elementary, which is part of the higher-ranked Barrington CUSD 220 district, highlights the importance of district-level factors in school quality.
