Best Public Schools in Zip Code 60649


Summary:

The 60649 zip code area of Chicago is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools and 2 high schools, all part of the Chicago Public Schools District 299. While the district as a whole is ranked 688 out of 813 districts in Illinois, a few schools in the 60649 area stand out with relatively stronger performance.

Parkside Elementary Community Academy is the highest-ranked elementary school in the area, with the best proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other 60649 schools. Art in Motion Charter School is the highest-ranked high school, with a higher 4-year graduation rate than the other high school in the area. However, overall, the schools in the 60649 zip code area perform significantly below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency.

A key concern is the high rates of chronic absenteeism across the schools, ranging from 38.2% to 73.3%, much higher than the state average. This, combined with the very high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients (78.45% to 97.17%), suggests that students in this area face significant challenges that may require additional resources and targeted strategies to improve educational outcomes.
