Tullar Elementary

Summary:

Tullar Elementary is a public elementary school in Neenah, Wisconsin, serving 392 students in grades K-5. As part of the Neenah Joint School District, which is ranked 122 out of 424 school districts in the state, Tullar Elementary consistently outperforms the district and the state of Wisconsin in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels.

Tullar Elementary has a strong statewide ranking, consistently placing in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school ranked 80 out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's exceptional performance extends to student subgroups, with Tullar Elementary ranking highly for female students, male students, white students, and special education students, indicating that it is effectively serving a diverse student population. Additionally, Tullar Elementary has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 2.4% to 5.4% over the past few years, which is lower than the rates of many nearby schools, such as Lakeview Elementary and ACE Alliance Charter Elementary.

While Tullar Elementary outperforms the Neenah Joint School District and the state of Wisconsin in most academic areas, the school's student population is predominantly white (around 90%), with a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (around 17-20%). This suggests that the school may have a more affluent student population, which could contribute to its strong academic performance. However, there may be opportunities to further enhance the school's performance, particularly in addressing the needs of low-socioeconomic status students, who have lower proficiency rates compared to the school's overall performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
