Summary:
The Weston School District has only one elementary school, Weston Elementary, which serves grades PK-6. While the school has some academic strengths, such as high proficiency rates in 4th and 5th grade ELA and 4th-6th grade math, it struggles significantly in 3rd grade ELA and math, falling well below the state averages.
Weston Elementary's social studies proficiency is notably high, with 80.95% of 4th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to the 62.96% state average. However, the school's overall district ranking is 356 out of 428 in Wisconsin, and it is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. This suggests that the school's academic performance, despite some bright spots, is not meeting the expectations of the state.
The school's high free/reduced lunch rate of 55.71% indicates that a significant portion of the student population faces economic disadvantages, which could be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance in certain areas. Additionally, the school's spending per student of $12,654 is higher than the state average, but this does not appear to be translating into stronger academic outcomes. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.3 to 1 could be an asset, but it has not yet resulted in significantly better academic performance compared to the state.
