Summary

Winter Elementary is a public elementary school located in Winter, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 103 students. The school is part of the Winter School District, which is ranked 343 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winter Elementary's academic performance has been mixed compared to the state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school outperformed the state average in 3rd grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, but underperformed in 4th grade English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Social Studies. The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 6.3% to 19.5% over the past few years, which can negatively impact student learning and achievement. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 74.76% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.

The school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio have fluctuated significantly over the past few years, suggesting a lack of consistent funding and resources. This instability in funding and resources could contribute to the school's academic performance challenges and the need for more targeted interventions and support services to address the underlying issues, such as chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population.
