2019 AcademicReport Card

Our students, across every demographic subgroup, continue to show growth and progress every single year. From rising graduation rates and record-high elementary math and reading scores to $1.47 billion in scholarships, Chicago students and educators are making historic academic progress.

This year, we launched the district’s new Five-Year Vision, which holds true to our values of academic progress, financial stability, and integrity, while committing to educational equity as our top priority. These principles guide our schools and push us to raise the bar to support all students and ensure their future success in college, career, and life.
