Summary:
The Sparta Area School District in Wisconsin is home to three elementary schools: Herrman Elementary, Southside Early Learning Center, and Sparta Montessori School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.
Sparta Montessori School stands out for its strong performance in 4th grade English Language Arts and Social Studies, with significantly higher proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages. However, the school's 3rd and 6th grade math proficiency rates are notably lower. Herrman Elementary has the highest enrollment and its 3rd grade English Language Arts and Math proficiency rates are above the district and state averages, while also maintaining a lower student-teacher ratio.
The data also reveals some areas of concern, such as the high chronic absenteeism rates at Southside Early Learning Center, which may be impacting overall academic achievement. Additionally, the significant variations in free and reduced lunch rates and spending per student across the schools suggest that socioeconomic factors and resource allocation may be influencing the academic outcomes in the district. Further analysis is needed to understand these dynamics and develop targeted strategies to support student success across all three elementary schools.
