Summary:
The Hartford J1 School District in Wisconsin consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Lincoln Elementary and Rossman Elementary) and 1 middle school (Central Middle). The data reveals that Rossman Elementary is the standout school in the district, with high academic performance, low chronic absenteeism, and a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients.
Rossman Elementary is ranked 157 out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools and has the highest proficiency rates on the Forward Exam across grades 3-5 in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, often exceeding the district and state averages. In contrast, Central Middle lags behind, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages.
The district as a whole has a relatively homogeneous student population, with a majority white student body and low representation of minority groups. Chronic absenteeism is a concern across the district, with all three schools reporting rates above 10%. Despite the consistent per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, the performance differences between the schools suggest that factors such as curriculum, teaching quality, and school leadership may be more influential.
