The Bradley School District 61 in Illinois consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Bradley East Elementary and Bradley West Elementary) and 1 middle school (Bradley Central Middle School). The data reveals a mix of strengths and challenges across the district, with the middle school standing out as the strongest performer.
Bradley Central Middle School has the highest statewide ranking among the district's schools, ranking 751 out of 1,363 Illinois middle schools. It also has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts across all grade levels compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, the elementary schools struggle more in Mathematics, with Bradley West Elementary having the lowest proficiency rates in the subject.
Chronic absenteeism is a concern, with Bradley East Elementary having the highest rate at 32.0%. This high absenteeism rate may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance.

Addressing these issues could be key focus areas for improvement across the Bradley School District 61.
