At a glance

On the 5Essentials survey, school leadership and teacher collaboration were both rated ‘Very Weak’ (5Essentials spring 2024 survey - benchmarked levels relative to Illinois statewide, spring 2013, not percentages). In 2021–22, the most recent seat data SchoolNav has, 8 applications were recorded for 7 offers (GoCPS, 2021–22 school year - the most recent seat data SchoolNav has).

Cultural fit
54% of students were chronically absent in 2025 - above what's typical for CPS elementary schools (ISBE Report Card 2025).
Academic performance
Adjusted for low-income share, results sit in the lower quarter of CPS schools with published IAR results (adjusted view, disclosed method - ISBE Report Card 2025).
Social-emotional fit
31% of students with IEPs spend most of the school day in general classrooms - below what's typical for CPS elementary schools (ISBE Report Card 2025).

UChicago 5Essentials levels from the spring 2024 survey (CPS Progress Reports SY2425, verified 2026-09-25) - benchmarked categories relative to Illinois statewide, spring 2013, not percentages. A school can answer mostly positively and still rate below the benchmark typical.

5Essentials - the latest survey in detail

Parent Supportiveness is rated above the CPS average; Parent Involvement in School, Teacher Influence, and Inquiry-Based Science Instruction are rated below it this year.

From the 2026 CPS 5Essentials survey (25-26). Scores are benchmarked 1–99 (not percentages) - higher is stronger, and each is shown against the CPS average that same year. This is a newer survey on a different benchmark than the component levels above, so the two aren’t directly comparable.
