Summary

Drought Elementary is a public elementary school located in Franksville, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 89 students. The school is part of the Norway J7 School District, which is ranked 57 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Drought Elementary has consistently performed above the state average in proficiency rates for the Forward Exam across various grade levels and subjects, particularly in 4th and 8th-grade Social Studies. The school's performance has been relatively stable over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 206 to 472 out of over 1,000 Wisconsin elementary schools. Additionally, Drought Elementary has a lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients and a smaller student-teacher ratio compared to the surrounding schools, suggesting a more advantaged student population.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Southwood Glen Elementary, Country Dale Elementary, and Lakeview Elementary, Drought Elementary generally outperforms them in terms of proficiency rates, particularly in subjects like Social Studies and Science. This academic success may be attributed to the school's higher per-student spending compared to the state average, which suggests access to more resources and support for its students.
