Lake View Elementary

Summary:

Lake View Elementary is a public elementary school in Madison, Wisconsin, serving 267 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Madison Metropolitan School District, which is ranked 330 out of 428 school districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lake View Elementary faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average academic performance on the Forward Exam, and varying student subgroup performance. The school's 72.66% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023 is much higher than the district and state averages, which may contribute to its academic struggles. When compared to nearby schools like Lowell Elementary, which outperforms Lake View on academic measures, the school's underperformance becomes even more apparent.

To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions, allocate additional resources, and explore strategies to improve student engagement and attendance. The varying performance of different student subgroups suggests the need for tailored support programs to meet the unique needs of these students. With its high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, Lake View Elementary may require more funding and resources to overcome the challenges it faces.

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.
