Summary:
The Dodgeville School District in Wisconsin has one elementary school, Dodgeville Elementary, which serves grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 379 students. This school appears to be a relatively strong-performing elementary school within the district, consistently ranking in the top half of Wisconsin elementary schools in recent years.
Dodgeville Elementary's students perform well on the Forward Exam, with 3rd and 4th-grade proficiency rates exceeding the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's 4th-grade Social Studies and Science scores are more mixed, with the former slightly below the state average and the latter slightly above. Additionally, the school has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (17.7%) compared to the state average, indicating relatively strong student attendance.
The Dodgeville School District appears to be allocating significant resources to support the education of its elementary school students, as evidenced by the high per-student spending ($17,140 in 2020-2021) and low student-teacher ratio of 10.3 to 1. These factors likely contribute to the school's strong academic performance. However, the relatively high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (30.34%) suggests there may be some economic disparities within the student population that could impact learning outcomes, and this is an area that warrants further investigation.
