Rosenow Elementary faces challenges in academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, where the school has consistently performed below the Fond du Lac School District and Wisconsin state averages on the Forward Exam. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency was 52.54% compared to the district's 47.26% and the state's 52.07%. The school also struggles with lower rankings for male students, White students, and students with special education needs compared to other Wisconsin elementary schools. Additionally, Rosenow Elementary has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.1% in 2019-2020 to 17.4% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the district and state averages.

While Rosenow Elementary performs better than some nearby schools, such as Friendship Learning Elementary and Treffert Way for the Exceptional Mind, it lags behind the academic performance of other schools in the Fond du Lac School District, like Waters Elementary and Riverside Elementary. The exceptional performance of Lakeshore Elementary, also within the Fond du Lac School District, stands out as a stark contrast to Rosenow Elementary's struggles.

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.
