Located on Hamlin Avenue in Chicago, Mozart Elementary School serves pre-kindergarten through eighth grade and over 51 percent of Mozart's 507 students are first-time English learners. Mozart maintains strong bilingual programs that include one-way and two-way classroom experiences. 80 percent of instruction is conducted in Spanish and 20 percent in English in Mozart's one-way dual language courses. In two-way classrooms, language instruction is split equally between first-time English learners and non-English learners. Mozart's students test slightly above expected proficiency levels in reading and math for an inner-city school. With an average student-to-teacher ratio of 16-to-1 and class size of 24, the staff of Mozart Elementary works hard to overcome students' barriers to learning. U.S. News and World Report ranked Mozart Elementary as one of the top 200 public elementary schools in Chicago. Mozart Elementary's athletic department includes volleyball, basketball, cross country, soccer and track for girls and boys and co-ed flag football. Students can explore the arts through Mozart Elementary's drumming core, poetry slam jam, guitar lessons, media and broadcasting group and board gaming club. The opportunities to discover a sense of integration in the middle of an ethnically diverse city are celebrated every day at Mozart Elementary.
