Gray Elementary School

Summary:

Gray Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 1,004 students in grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, which is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299. The school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gray Elementary School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 20% to 36.3% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores are also consistently lower than state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 29.2% of students proficient or better in ELA and 18.4% in math in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the school's performance on subgroup metrics is concerning, with only one out of eight subgroups ranking in the top half of Illinois elementary schools.

While some nearby schools in the same district, such as Portage Park Elementary School and Reinberg Elementary School, have slightly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates, one outlier is Thorp O A Elementary Scholastic Academy, which consistently ranks in the top 20% of Illinois elementary schools and has significantly higher test scores than Gray Elementary School and the district average. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at Gray Elementary School, along with the school's higher student-teacher ratio, suggest that socioeconomic factors and resource allocation may be playing a significant role in the school's 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.
