Summary:
The Genoa City J2 School District has only one elementary school, Brookwood Elementary, which serves students in the area. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Brookwood Elementary's SchoolDigger rating is 1 out of 5 stars, indicating below-average performance. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 23.4% in 3rd-grade English Language Arts and 27.66% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 37.88% and 48.79%, respectively. While the school's proficiency rates improved slightly in the 2023-2024 school year, they remained well below the state averages.
Despite the school's low performance, Brookwood Elementary has a higher per-student spending than the state average, suggesting that the issue may not be a lack of resources but rather the effective utilization of those resources to improve student outcomes. The school also serves a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, which raises questions about equity in educational opportunities and the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of these students.
