Summary:
The Granton Area School District has only one elementary school, Granton Elementary, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 135 students.
Granton Elementary's performance has been declining in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 489 out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 759 out of 1,044 in 2024-2025. The school's proficiency rates on the Forward Exam are consistently lower than the state averages across multiple subject areas, indicating academic underperformance. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 56.3%, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among its student population.
Despite the school's challenges, it spends more per student than the state average and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and teaching strategies to better support student learning and improve academic outcomes.
