Lac du Flambeau Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 3 school years, with rankings between 905-941 out of over 1,000 schools, indicating the school is performing well below the state average. The school has an extremely high free/reduced lunch rate of 86.86%, suggesting a large majority of students come from low-income households, and a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is significantly higher than the state average.
Despite the school's low academic performance, as evidenced by its poor test scores across all grade levels and subject areas, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.1 to 1. The school's high spending per student, at $24,578 in the 2020-2021 school year, raises questions about the efficient and effective use of its financial resources, as the poor academic results suggest there may be systemic issues or resource challenges impacting the school's ability to effectively support student learning.
