Summary

Gegan Elementary is a public elementary school in Menasha, Wisconsin, serving 285 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Menasha Joint School District, which is ranked 361 out of 426 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gegan Elementary consistently performs below the district and state averages in academic proficiency on the Forward Exam. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade proficiency rates were 24.14% in ELA and 37.93% in Math, compared to the district's 37.82% and 43.23%, and the state's 52.14% and 55%, respectively. The school's performance has been consistently low, with rankings in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 10 years. Gegan Elementary also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.0% to 21.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

While Gegan Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.7 to 11.1 over the past few years, this does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes. The nearby Clovis Grove Elementary, Banta Bilingual Elementary, and Butte des Morts Elementary, which are also part of the Menasha Joint School District, generally outperform Gegan Elementary in academic proficiency.
