Graduation and college-enrollment rates, addresses and enrollment come from the City of Chicago open data portal, refreshed 2026-09-12. CPS publishes no school ranking — it retired its 1+/1/2+ levels — so “Outcomes” here is just those two published rates averaged against the district mean, shown beside every school. It is a way to sort, not a verdict on a school.

CPS scores the 2027-28 cycle out of 640: your composite × 10 (max 320) plus 7th-grade GPA × 80 (max 320). The historical cutoffs below are on the retired 900 scale and are not a PreACT target.
Your tier The tier of your home address determines which cutoff column applies to you.

Heads up: the admissions test changed to the PreACT 9 (scored 1–32). The cutoffs below are from the old HSAT 900-point era and are shown for reference only — the 2027-28 cycle is scored out of 640 and CPS won't publish cutoffs on that scale until after February 2027 results.
