Summary:
The city of Wyeville, Wisconsin has only one public elementary school, Wyeville Elementary, which serves grades K-5 and has a total enrollment of 108 students. While the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average, its academic performance on standardized tests is generally below the Tomah Area School District and Wisconsin state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Wyeville Elementary has a low statewide ranking, placing between the 64th and 83rd percentile of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past three years. The school's performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized assessment, is generally below the district and state averages, with the exception of 4th-grade students scoring above the district and state averages in Social Studies. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9%, which is a concerning statistic linked to lower academic achievement.
The school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as indicated by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 65.74%. This factor may contribute to the school's lower academic performance compared to the district and state averages. Despite the higher per-student spending, the school's inconsistent performance on the Forward Exam suggests that the resources may not be effectively deployed to support student success. Further investigation into the school's practices and strategies would be necessary to identify areas for improvement and develop targeted interventions.
