Parkview Elementary

Summary:

Parkview Elementary is a public elementary school in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, serving 392 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District, which is ranked 212 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Parkview Elementary has faced some challenges in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 617 and 864 out of over 1,000 Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 10 years. Its SchoolDigger rating has also varied between 1 and 2 stars during this period. One key issue is the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, which have risen from 6.8% in 2018-2019 to 13.6% in 2022-2023, significantly higher than nearby Jim Falls Elementary (7.8%) and Stillson Elementary (8.1%). Parkview's test scores are also generally lower than the district and state averages, with its 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 46.03% compared to the district's 47.19% and the state's 52.07%.

Another factor that sets Parkview Elementary apart is its high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.29% to 57.65% over the past three school years. This is significantly higher than the nearby Jim Falls Elementary (25.4%) and Stillson Elementary (23.35%), suggesting a relatively low-income student population that may contribute to the school's lower academic performance. Addressing these challenges, such as the high chronic absenteeism rates and socioeconomic factors, could be crucial in improving Parkview Elementary's overall outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
