Summary:
The city of Jim Falls, Wisconsin is home to a single elementary school, Jim Falls Elementary, which serves grades K-5 and has a total enrollment of 126 students. The school is part of the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District.
Jim Falls Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 236th out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 493rd out of 1,067 in 2021-2022. The school's performance on the Forward Exam (Wisconsin's standardized test) varies across grade levels and subject areas, with 4th and 5th grade students outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while 3rd grade students underperformed in English Language Arts. However, the school's students performed well above the district and state averages in Social Studies and Science for 4th grade.
Jim Falls Elementary has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (25.4%), which is lower than the district average. The school also has a student-teacher ratio of 13:1, which is lower than the typical class size. Additionally, the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District spends $14,036 per student, which is higher than the state average. These factors suggest that the school may have access to more resources to support student learning, but the inconsistent performance across grade levels and subjects indicates that the school may need to examine its curriculum, teaching methods, and resource allocation to ensure more consistent and equitable performance.
