Lozano Elementary Bilingual & International Center

Summary:

Lozano Elementary Bilingual & International Center is a public elementary school in Chicago, Illinois that serves grades PK-8 and is part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299. Despite its high per-student spending, Lozano Elementary consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Illinois, with severe challenges across key metrics.

Lozano Elementary's performance is particularly concerning, with extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, very low academic proficiency levels, and poor performance among student subgroups. For example, in 3rd grade ELA, Lozano had 0% proficiency compared to 21.3% for the district and 30.6% for the state. Nearby schools like LaSalle II Lang Academy, Pritzker Elementary, and Mayer Elementary significantly outperform Lozano across a variety of metrics, suggesting that the school is struggling to effectively address the needs of its students.

Despite the high per-student spending at Lozano Elementary, this additional funding does not appear to be translating into improved educational outcomes. The school's performance has remained consistently poor over the past decade, with little to no improvement in its statewide ranking or academic proficiency levels. Addressing the underlying issues, such as high chronic absenteeism and the concentration of disadvantaged student subgroups, could be crucial for improving student outcomes at Lozano Elementary.

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.
