Summary:
Plum City Elementary is the sole elementary school in the Plum City School District in Wisconsin. With a small student population of 89 and a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, the school faces a mix of challenges and strengths in its academic performance.
Plum City Elementary's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 376th out of 1,044 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 584th out of 1,067 in 2022-2023. While the school has shown strong performance in some subject areas and grade levels, such as 4th and 5th-grade mathematics and social studies, it has struggled in others, particularly 3rd-grade mathematics. The school's chronic absenteeism rate for the 2023-2024 school year was 17.7%, which is higher than the state average.
Despite these challenges, Plum City Elementary benefits from a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 8:1 and higher-than-average per-student spending of $15,753 for the 2020-2021 school year. These factors may provide opportunities for more personalized attention and support, though the school's small size could also present challenges in terms of resource allocation and program offerings.
