Summary:
The 60585 zip code area is home to 9 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools, which are part of the Plainfield School District 202 and CUSD 308. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with some standout institutions that consistently rank among the top in the state.
Plainfield North High School stands out as a top-performing high school, with a 94.8% 4-year graduation rate, a low 1.4% dropout rate, and strong test scores, with 40-45% of 11th graders proficient or better in SAT Math and ELA. In contrast, Plainfield East High School has a slightly lower 92.6% graduation rate and a 1.5% dropout rate. The middle schools, such as Heritage Grove Middle School, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on state assessments.
At the elementary level, there is more variability in performance, with Freedom Elementary School and Eagle Pointe Elementary School standing out with higher test scores, while Grande Park Elementary School lags behind. The data suggests that higher spending per student does not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes, as some of the higher-performing schools have relatively lower per-student spending.
