Summary:
The Brodhead School District has only one elementary school, Ronald R Albrecht Elementary, which serves students from grades K-5. The school faces significant challenges, with below-average academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and a large population of students from low-income families.
Ronald R Albrecht Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in English Language Arts. The school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate is 37.93%, compared to the state average of 52.14%, and its 4th grade ELA proficiency rate is 43.33%, compared to the state average of 52.21%. While the 5th grade ELA proficiency rate is closer to the state average at 52.11%, the school's overall academic performance suggests it is struggling compared to other schools in Wisconsin.
Additionally, the school faces challenges with student engagement, as evidenced by its high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%. This is significantly higher than the state average and can negatively impact student learning and achievement. Furthermore, with nearly half of the student population qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school likely faces socioeconomic challenges that can contribute to its lower academic performance. The Brodhead School District as a whole is also struggling, ranked 327 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and rated only 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
