Berwyn North School District 98

The Berwyn North School District 98 in Illinois serves 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school. The district faces a mix of strengths and challenges, with some schools demonstrating promising performance while others lag behind.

Lincoln Middle School stands out as the top performer in the district, ranking 565 out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools and boasting the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science compared to the district and state averages. However, its Mathematics proficiency rates are lower than the district and state averages. Meanwhile, Jefferson Elementary School is the highest-ranking elementary school in the district, with strong proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science.

The district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across all schools. Additionally, the district's overall performance in Mathematics proficiency and high chronic absenteeism rates indicate areas that could benefit from further attention and targeted interventions. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, the district's outcomes do not yet fully reflect these investments, suggesting a need to address the underlying factors impacting student achievement.
