Summary:

Hazelgreen Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 274 students in grades K-6 in Alsip, Illinois, which is part of the Alsip-Hazlgrn-Oaklwn School District 126. While the school's overall academic performance is generally lower than state averages, it has some notable strengths and areas for improvement.

Hazelgreen Elementary School's student performance is particularly strong in 6th grade English Language Arts (ELA), where the proficiency rate was 51.3% in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the district (41%) and state (46.7%) averages. However, the school struggles in 3rd grade ELA, with a proficiency rate of only 22.2% in 2023-2024, compared to the state's 30.6%. The school's Hispanic students perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 30% of Illinois elementary schools for ELA and Mathematics, while its White students perform relatively poorly, ranking in the bottom 30%. The school's English Language Learner (ELL) and Special Education students also perform well, ranking in the top 5% and top 25% of Illinois elementary schools, respectively, in 2018-2019.

Compared to nearby schools, Stony Creek Elementary School and Lane Elementary School, Hazelgreen Elementary School generally outperforms them in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates. However, when compared to Kolmar Avenue Elementary School in the neighboring Oak Lawn-Hometown School District 123, Hazelgreen's performance is less impressive, as Kolmar Avenue has significantly higher proficiency rates in both subjects. Additionally, Hazelgreen Elementary School has experienced fluctuating chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.8% in 2020-2021 to 26.7% in 2022-2023, which may be impacting the school's overall academic performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
