J M Hannum Elementary School

Summary:

J M Hannum Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Oak Lawn, Illinois, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 416 students. The school is part of the Oak Lawn-Hometown School District 123, which is ranked 337 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While J M Hannum Elementary School has some strengths, such as the performance of its African American and Hispanic students, which outpaces their peers statewide, the school has consistently underperformed the district and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 3.1% in the 2019-2020 school year to 19.2% in the 2023-2024 school year, which remains higher than the district and state averages. Interestingly, when compared to nearby schools within the same district, Kolmar Avenue Elementary School and Sward Elementary School have consistently outperformed J M Hannum in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency.

Despite the higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio at J M Hannum compared to the district average, the academic performance data indicates that these investments have not yet translated into improved student outcomes. This highlights the need for the school to closely examine its instructional practices and resource allocation to better support its students, particularly the White and English Language Learner (ELL) subgroups, which have struggled to perform at the same level as their peers.

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.

Open Quote Hannum is an ok local neighborhood school. I think that it is unfortunate that this school lacks ethnic diversity among the teaching staff. Close Quote

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.
