Best Public Schools in Zip Code 60014

Summary:

The 60014 zip code area of Crystal Lake, Illinois is home to 16 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools in the region, with several standout institutions demonstrating strong academic achievement and others facing challenges.

Among the top-performing schools are Prairie Grove Elementary School and Prairie Grove Junior High School, which consistently outperform state and district averages on standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts. Similarly, Woods Creek Elementary School and South Elementary School also show strong academic performance. At the high school level, Crystal Lake Central High School and Crystal Lake South High School are both highly ranked within the state, with 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, schools such as Canterbury Elementary and Husmann Elementary demonstrate lower proficiency rates on state assessments. These schools also tend to have higher rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance. The data also highlights the importance of district-level factors, as schools within the same district, such as Prairie Grove Central School District 46 and Crystal Lake CCSD 47, show more consistent performance.
