Summary:
The Pulaski Community School District in Wisconsin serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade across 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district generally performs well, with several standout schools and a strong academic record.
Pulaski High School is a standout, consistently ranking in the top half of Wisconsin high schools with a 4-star rating and impressive metrics like a 91% 4-year graduation rate and a low 1.3% dropout rate. Lannoye Elementary is another high-performing school, ranking in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools with a 4-star rating and significantly above-average test scores. Sunnyside Elementary has shown impressive growth, moving from a 2-star to a 3-star rating in recent years and boasting an exceptional 80.52% 3rd-grade math proficiency rate.
While the district generally performs well, there are some areas for improvement. All schools in the district have a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is an area of concern. Additionally, there is significant variation in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 11.38% at Sunnyside Elementary to 31.24% at Glenbrook Elementary. The data also suggests that factors other than per-student spending, such as teaching quality and school leadership, may play a more significant role in academic performance.
