Summary

Chegwin Elementary is a public elementary school in Fond du Lac School District, serving 285 students in grades PK-5. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past several years, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.

Chegwin Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the Forward Exam, is significantly lower than the Fond du Lac School District and the state of Wisconsin averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 25.81% of 3rd-grade students at Chegwin Elementary were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 57.46% for the district and 52.14% for the state. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 17.7% to 25.1% over the past few years, which can negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes.

In comparison, the nearby Evans Elementary, Lakeshore Elementary, and Waters Elementary generally outperform Chegwin Elementary in academic achievement, with higher proficiency rates in the Forward Exam and lower percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may need to focus on providing additional support and resources to address the underlying factors contributing to its underperformance.
