Summary

Saint Croix Central Elementary is a public elementary school in Roberts, Wisconsin, serving 635 students in grades PK-4 as part of the Saint Croix Central School District. The school has consistently ranked in the top 30-40% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past several years, with strong academic performance across core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Social Studies.

Saint Croix Central Elementary's academic achievement, as measured by the Forward Exam, often exceeds the state and district averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 4th-grade students scored 66.06% proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 52.21% for the state and 64.86% for the district. The school's performance is generally on par or slightly better than nearby schools like Greenwood Elementary and New Richmond Starr Elementary. However, the school has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 8.0% in 2020-2021 to 19.5% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern.

While the school has shown strong performance for its male students and special education students, the performance for female students and low socioeconomic status students has been more variable, with rankings ranging from the top 30% to the top 50% of Wisconsin elementary schools. The school's increasing per-student spending and decreasing student-teacher ratio suggest that the Saint Croix Central School District is allocating resources effectively to support student learning and provide a more personalized educational experience.
