Summary

Grewenow Elementary is a public elementary school in Kenosha, Wisconsin, serving 264 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Kenosha School District, which is ranked 342 out of 426 school districts in the state.

Grewenow Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 10 years, with academic performance significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 31.43% of 3rd-grade students at Grewenow were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 41.92% in the Kenosha School District and 52.14% statewide. The school has also struggled to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, with relatively better performance for African American and Hispanic students compared to female, male, and white students.

Grewenow Elementary faces additional challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 17.7% to 29.5% over the past few years, and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 58.33% to 73.26% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, this does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes. Compared to nearby schools, such as Kenosha School of Technology Enhanced Curriculum, Brompton School, and Roosevelt Elementary, Grewenow's performance is generally lower, though it does outperform some other nearby schools.
