Summary:
The Jefferson School District in Wisconsin is home to three elementary schools: East Elementary, West Elementary, and Sullivan Elementary. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.
Among the three schools, Sullivan Elementary stands out as the top performer. It has the highest statewide ranking, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, and outperforms the district and state averages in several key test score metrics, particularly in 3rd grade math and 4th grade social studies. Additionally, Sullivan Elementary has the lowest percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, suggesting a more affluent student population.
In contrast, East Elementary and West Elementary have more mixed results, with some areas where they underperform the district and state averages. The data also reveals that higher spending per student does not necessarily translate to better academic performance, as Sullivan Elementary, the highest-performing school, has the lowest spending per student. Additionally, all three schools share the same chronic absenteeism rate, indicating a district-wide challenge that may require further investigation and targeted interventions.
