Summary:
The Waupaca School District in Wisconsin is home to three elementary schools serving grades PK-8: Waupaca Learning Center Elementary, Chain Exploration Center, and Waupaca Community 4-Year Old Kindergarten. The data reveals notable differences in the performance and characteristics of these schools.
Among the three, Chain Exploration Center stands out as the top-performing school. It consistently outperforms the district and state averages on state assessments, ranking among the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools. Additionally, Chain Exploration Center has a lower chronic absenteeism rate and a lower percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch compared to the district average. The school also benefits from higher per-student spending than the other two schools.
In contrast, Waupaca Learning Center Elementary has seen a decline in its performance, dropping from a 3-star to a 2-star rating on SchoolDigger. Meanwhile, Waupaca Community 4-Year Old Kindergarten, as a pre-K program, has more limited performance data available. However, it stands out with a higher student-teacher ratio and a higher percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch, suggesting potential challenges in serving its student population.
