Standardized Testing

Schoolwide iReady Test Scores: Reading: 94% and Math: 96%

OLW students take periodic iReady assessments, along with all schools in the Archdiocese of Chicago. Our students consistently outperform nearby schools. For the 2025–26 school year, OLW School’s scores met the criteria for the former National Blue Ribbon program, placing students 15% or more above national and state norms in reading and math. OLW also earned this recognition in 2015 and 1997, making it one of the few schools to receive the designation more than once.

Our score analysis shows that every grade achieved both high performance and strong growth compared with national norms. Our commitment to academic excellence remains unwavering, and we are incredibly proud of our teachers and students.
