Summary:
The Mauston School District in Wisconsin is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools include West Side Elementary, Grayside Elementary, Mauston Montessori Charter School, and Lyndon Station Elementary.
Among the schools, Lyndon Station Elementary stands out as the top performer, ranking 284 out of 1,044 Wisconsin elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperformed the district and state averages in several academic areas, including 71.43% proficiency in 4th grade English Language Arts and 85.71% proficiency in 4th grade Mathematics. In contrast, Mauston Montessori Charter School demonstrated particular strengths in 4th grade Social Studies and Science, despite lower overall academic performance compared to the district and state.
Across the district, all four schools had the same chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% for the 2023-2024 school year, which is higher than the state average. The data also shows a mixed relationship between spending per student and academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may play a more significant role in driving student achievement.
