The 5Essentials Reports for Chicago Public Schools are based on the 2025
5Essentials Surveys administered in February and March.
For 2025, CPS schools will not receive an overall rating due to missing Measure data for two Essentials due to
a UChicago administrative error: Ambitious Instruction (all schools) and Supportive Environment (elementary, middle and primary schools). The schools list page has been updated to reflect this error and is represented by blue bars where applicable.
However, schools who met the reporting thresholds for the student survey are encouraged to review the available Measure scores within these Essentials, as well as Supplemental Measures. Click the link below to download the data use guidance.
