Hampton Elementary Fine & Perf Arts School

Summary:

Hampton Elementary Fine & Perf Arts School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Chicago, Illinois, with 468 students enrolled. However, the school has consistently struggled, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Illinois elementary schools based on its academic performance.

Hampton Elementary's proficiency rates on state assessments are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 15.4% of students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 30.5% for the Chicago Public Schools District 299 and 41.2% for the state. The school also has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 38% to 52.2% over the past few years, much higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Hampton Elementary struggles to effectively serve its student subgroups, with rankings for African American, Hispanic, English Learner, and low-income students all in the bottom 30-40% of Illinois elementary schools.

Despite consistent funding and resources, Hampton Elementary has not shown any meaningful improvement in its academic performance or other key metrics over the past 10 years. Interestingly, the nearby schools in the same district, such as Dawes Elementary, Tarkington Elementary, and Owen Elementary, generally outperform Hampton Elementary on academic measures, have lower chronic absenteeism rates, and serve their student subgroups more effectively. This suggests that factors within the school's control, such as instructional quality, school leadership, and family engagement, may play a significant role in its persistent underperformance.

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.
