Best Public Schools in Zip Code 54763

Summary:

The 54763 zip code has only one school, Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary, which serves grades PK-4 and is part of the Barron Area School District. With a total enrollment of 75 students, Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three school years, dropping from 526th out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 835th out of 1,044 in 2024-2025.

The school's performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized assessment, is mixed compared to the district and state averages. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 3rd and 4th grades were below the district and state averages, but its 4th-grade proficiency rates in Social Studies and Science were closer to or above the district and state averages. Additionally, Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 62.67% for the 2023-2024 school year, and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10:1 for the same year.

Despite the higher per-student spending at Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary compared to the state average, the school's declining performance and high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% for the 2023-2024 school year suggest that the resources may not be effectively translating into improved student outcomes. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address these challenges and improve the educational experience for the students at Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary.
