The data reveals significant disparities in school performance within the 53224 zip code area. While some schools are performing relatively well, the majority are struggling, with low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and poor statewide rankings. The high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility across the schools suggest that these are high-poverty areas, which can present unique challenges in terms of student learning, access to resources, and overall school performance. The consistently low performance metrics across the schools indicate a potential need for targeted interventions and support to help improve educational outcomes for students in the 53224 area.
