Summary:
The Lake Holcombe School District in Wisconsin is home to a single elementary school, Holcombe Elementary. This small school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 61.02% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school has a low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, its academic performance has consistently been in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools, ranking 843 out of 1,061 in the 2023-2024 school year.
Holcombe Elementary's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science are generally below the state averages across all grade levels. The school's best performance is in 4th grade Social Studies, where 55% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 62.96%. However, the school's lowest performance is in 3rd grade English Language Arts, where only 33.33% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 52.07%. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 13.3% is higher than the state average.
Despite the higher-than-average spending of $18,477 per student, Holcombe Elementary appears to be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students. The school's small size and low student-teacher ratio could be leveraged to implement more personalized interventions and support, but the data suggests that the school faces significant challenges in improving academic outcomes for its predominantly low-income student population.
