Elementary Schools in Kenosha School District


Summary:

The Kenosha School District in Wisconsin is home to 25 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The schools in this district vary significantly in terms of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation, with some standout schools like Kenosha School of Technology Enhanced Curriculum and Jeffery Elementary consistently outperforming the district and state averages, while others struggle with low proficiency rates and high chronic absenteeism.

The data reveals substantial disparities in academic achievement across the district, with schools like Edward Bain School - Creative Arts having proficiency rates as low as 5.88% in 3rd grade English Language Arts, compared to over 85% at Jeffery Elementary. These performance gaps seem to be closely linked to the socioeconomic status of the student population, as schools with higher free/reduced lunch rates tend to have lower test scores and rankings.

Despite these challenges, the Kenosha School District also has several high-performing public charter schools, such as Kenosha School of Technology Enhanced Curriculum and Brompton School, which demonstrate the potential for innovative approaches to drive student achievement. Addressing the inequities within the district and identifying strategies to support the lowest-performing schools should be a priority for district leaders.
