Best Public Schools in Zip Code 62560

Summary:

The 62560 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 high school, 1 elementary school, and 1 middle school - all part of the Panhandle CUSD 2 district. While the district is ranked 528 out of 813 in Illinois with a 2-star rating, the Raymond Grade School stands out, ranking 788 out of 2,067 Illinois elementary schools with a 3-star rating and performing above district and state averages in English Language Arts and Science proficiency.

The Lincolnwood Junior High School also performs above the district and state averages in Science proficiency and has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 15.7%. However, the Lincolnwood High School struggles, with proficiency rates in SAT Math (2.9%) and ELA (14.7%) significantly lower than the state averages (26.1% and 31.1%, respectively).

The schools in this area face challenges, with high free and reduced lunch rates indicating a significant proportion of students from low-income families. While the student-teacher ratios are relatively low, which could be a positive factor, the overall academic performance, particularly at the high school level, is a concern. Targeted interventions and further investigation into the root causes of the observed trends could help improve the quality of education in this area.
