Summary

Boscobel Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Boscobel, Wisconsin, part of the Boscobel Area School District. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past decade, currently holding a 3-out-of-5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Boscobel Elementary's performance has been mixed compared to state averages. While its 3rd-5th grade proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics have generally been on par with or slightly above the state, the school has struggled with inconsistent results in recent years. However, its students have excelled on Social Studies and Science exams, exceeding state averages in these subjects. The school faces challenges with high rates of economic disadvantage and chronic absenteeism, which may be impacting its overall academic progress.

When compared to nearby schools like Winskill Elementary, Highland Community Elementary, and Seneca Elementary, Boscobel Elementary's performance is generally on par or slightly below. However, the school lags behind higher-performing regional schools such as Fennimore Elementary and Wauzeka Elementary. Addressing the school's challenges with chronic absenteeism and supporting its most vulnerable student populations could be key to driving sustained improvement at Boscobel Elementary.
