Richmond School District

The Richmond School District in Wisconsin has one standout school, Richmond Elementary, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 407 students. This school is a top performer, ranking in the top 10.5% of elementary schools in the state and consistently maintaining a high ranking over the past three years.

Richmond Elementary's academic performance is exceptional, with students scoring well above the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science on the Forward Exam. The school has a very low dropout rate of 1.9% and a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 6.1%. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students who are proficient or better in core academic subjects, with several grades exceeding 70% proficiency. The school's racial demographics are predominantly white (91.15%), with a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (1.47%), indicating a relatively affluent student population.

The school's per-student spending of $12,270 is higher than the state average, suggesting a well-funded educational program. However, the school's demographic and socioeconomic profile raises questions about equity and access for underrepresented groups. While Richmond Elementary is a high-performing school, there may be opportunities to further enhance student outcomes, particularly for the small percentages of non-white and economically disadvantaged students.
