Summary

Ronald R Albrecht Elementary is a PK–4 school serving about 460 students in Brodhead, Wisconsin, and it is the elementary school for the Brodhead School District. The school has held steady at two stars for a decade; in 2025–2026 it ranked 701st of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools (33rd percentile). Its district ranks 336th of 432 statewide (22nd percentile, one star). Among the nearby schools listed here, Albrecht has the lowest 2025–2026 rank percentile, with Monticello Elementary (42nd) and Theodore Robinson Intermediate School (48th) next lowest.

Attendance is a clear bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 9.2% in 2024–2025, well below the district’s 14.6% and the state’s 17.3%, and lower than Parkside Elementary, Monticello Elementary, Theodore Robinson Intermediate School, and Parkview Elementary. Test results are more mixed. In 2025–2026, Albrecht was below the state in most tested subjects, with the largest gaps in 3rd grade math (44.58% vs. 54.75%) and 4th grade science (45.76% vs. 53.46%). Fourth grade ELA (50.85% vs. 53.87%) and social studies (64.41% vs. 65.51%) came close to state averages, and both improved over three years. Still, 3rd grade math is the lowest among nearby schools compared here, and science trails all of them except Monticello Elementary.

Results also vary by student group. The special education subgroup ranked 222nd of 791 (72nd percentile, four stars) in 2025–2026, a sharp jump from the 26th percentile a year earlier, while students from low-income families ranked in the 30th percentile. Spending and class size do not explain the gaps: at $14,361 per student and a 13.2 student-teacher ratio, Albrecht is mid-range among nearby schools, yet Abraham Lincoln Elementary and Parkview Elementary spend similar or less and score higher in several subjects, and Parkside Elementary serves a higher share of low-income students (50%) with higher outcomes. Early math, 4th grade science, and broader subgroup growth are the clearest areas to watch, with attendance as a foundation to build on.
