Cudahy School District

The Cudahy School District in Wisconsin serves approximately 3,000 students across 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district faces significant academic challenges, with performance on state assessments generally lagging behind state averages, particularly in Mathematics and Science.

While the district as a whole is underperforming, there are some standout schools, such as Lincoln Elementary and Kosciuszko Elementary, that are outperforming their peers. These schools have the highest proficiency rates on state assessments, with 61-82% of students proficient or advanced in English Language Arts and 35-54% proficient or advanced in Mathematics. However, the district faces high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 13.7% to 41.7%, which may be contributing to the academic challenges.

Socioeconomic factors also appear to be a significant challenge for the district, with 51.56% to 74.19% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The district's overall ranking of 383 out of 428 in Wisconsin and a 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest that the Cudahy School District has room for improvement in various areas, including academic performance, attendance, and addressing the needs of its student population.
