Rock Elementary

Summary:

Rock Elementary is a public elementary school located in Hudson, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 405. It is part of the Hudson School District, which is ranked 57 out of 428 districts in Wisconsin and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

While Rock Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it continues to perform well in certain areas. The school's proficiency rates in Mathematics are consistently strong, with 5th-grade students outperforming the district and state averages. However, the school's performance in English Language Arts and for certain student subgroups, such as White students and students with low socioeconomic status, is relatively weaker. Additionally, Rock Elementary has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, which may be impacting its overall academic performance.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Hudson School District, Rock Elementary generally performs below its peers, particularly Houlton Elementary and Hudson Prairie Elementary, which consistently rank higher in the state. Examining the practices and strategies employed by these higher-performing schools could provide valuable insights for Rock Elementary to improve its own performance and address the challenges it faces in maintaining academic excellence and addressing disparities among student subgroups.

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.
