Summary:
The Wausaukee School District in Wisconsin has only one elementary school, Wausaukee Elementary, which serves students from preschool through 5th grade. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools, with a statewide ranking between 845 and 925 out of over 1,000 schools over the past three school years.
Wausaukee Elementary's academic performance is significantly below the state average across multiple subjects and grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades were all below 32%, compared to the state averages of over 50%. The school's performance on the social studies and science assessments for 4th grade was slightly better, but still below the state averages.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $15,596 and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 11:1, these resources have not translated into strong academic outcomes. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% in the 2023-2024 school year. Addressing the school's academic struggles, attendance issues, and the unique needs of its student population, which has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, will be crucial in improving the school's performance and providing a high-quality education to its students.
