Sunnydale Elementary School

Summary:

Sunnydale Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 297 students in grades K-6 in Streamwood, Illinois. It is part of the School District U-46, which is ranked 578 out of 813 districts in the state.

Sunnydale Elementary faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, consistently underperforming test scores compared to the district and state, and performance gaps among student subgroups. Despite having the highest spending per student ($18,232) and a relatively low student-teacher ratio (12.3) among nearby schools, the school's academic outcomes are not reflecting these additional resources. In contrast, Schaumburg CCSD 54 schools in the area consistently outperform Sunnydale on test scores and other metrics, suggesting that the school may need to examine how it is utilizing its resources and learn from the strategies of higher-performing schools.

However, Sunnydale does show some strengths, particularly in supporting its Hispanic and English Language Learner student populations, who perform better at the school compared to the state. Understanding the effective practices used for these subgroups could provide valuable insights for improving outcomes for other student groups. Overall, Sunnydale Elementary faces significant challenges, and addressing the root causes of its underperformance, improving attendance, and implementing targeted interventions could be key focus areas for the school to drive meaningful improvements.

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.
