Summary:
The city of Boscobel, Wisconsin is home to a single elementary school, Boscobel Elementary, which serves students from the Boscobel Area School District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it offers a relatively small class size and above-average per-student spending, which may be beneficial for its students.
Boscobel Elementary's academic performance has been mixed, with the school's proficiency rates on the Forward Exam varying across grade levels and subject areas. In 2024-2025, the school's 5th-grade math proficiency rate was 75%, which exceeded the state average, but its 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate was only 52.08%, falling below the state average. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% in 2023-2024 was higher than the state average.
Despite these challenges, Boscobel Elementary appears to have some strengths, including a low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 and a relatively high per-student spending of $14,284 in 2020-2021. However, the school serves a student population with a high percentage (64.09%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may require additional resources and support to address the unique needs of its students.
