Summary:
The city of Genoa City, Wisconsin is home to two schools - Brookwood Middle School and Brookwood Elementary School, both part of the Genoa City J2 School District. While the middle school has seen a slight decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, both schools appear to be struggling academically, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in core subjects.
Brookwood Middle School is ranked 429 out of 641 Wisconsin middle schools and has a 2-star rating, while Brookwood Elementary School has a history of low performance, ranking in the bottom quarter of Wisconsin elementary schools in the past. Both schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, with Brookwood Elementary at 22.5% and Brookwood Middle at 18.6%. Additionally, the schools serve student populations with a significant percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage that may be impacting their ability to provide the necessary resources and support for student success.
The data suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student learning outcomes in the Genoa City schools. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism, reviewing the schools' practices and resource allocation, and engaging the community to support student success should be priorities for the district. With the right strategies and investments, the schools in Genoa City can work to overcome the challenges they currently face and provide a high-quality education for all students.
