Summary

Adeline Montessori School Inc is a unique public charter school in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-9 with a total enrollment of 137 students. The school follows the Montessori educational philosophy, which emphasizes hands-on, self-directed learning.

While Adeline Montessori School Inc has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, it faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. The school has significantly lower proficiency rates on the Forward Exam across all grade levels and subject areas, with its 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at just 11.11% compared to the state average of 52.14%. Adeline Montessori also struggles with high dropout rates, ranging from 5.5% to 8.0%, and high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.0% to 27.6%, both of which are much higher than state averages. In contrast, nearby schools like Johnson Creek Public School and Lake Country Classical Academy Inc have significantly higher test scores, graduation rates, and lower dropout and chronic absenteeism rates.

Adeline Montessori's unique educational approach and low percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 2.19% to 2.91%, may contribute to these challenges. Further investigation into the school's educational model, student demographics, and community engagement may provide insights into how to address these issues and better support the school's students.
