The West Chicago Education Service District 33 consists of 7 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 1 middle school, serving students in the West Chicago area. The data reveals significant variation in academic performance across the district, with some standout schools like Turner Elementary School and Gary Elementary School leading the way, while others struggle to meet state averages.
Chronic absenteeism is a concern across the district, ranging from 12.3% at Gary Elementary to 24.4% at Wegner Elementary, with the district average at 19.6%.

The data also highlights potential equity gaps, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 49.89% at Gary Elementary to 66.08% at Currier Elementary. Addressing these socioeconomic challenges and ensuring equitable resources and support across all schools in the West Chicago Education Service District 33 should be a priority.
