Morgandale Elementary

Summary:

Morgandale Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, part of the Milwaukee School District, which is ranked 417 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Morgandale Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 965 out of 1,061 schools.

Morgandale Elementary faces significant challenges in academic performance, with consistently low proficiency rates across all grade levels and subject areas on the Forward Exam, well below the district and state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 7.27% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 21.43% for the district and 52.07% for the state. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism, at 43.1% in 2022-2023, and fluctuating dropout rates between 0.7% and 3.0% over the past five years. Additionally, the school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 85.85% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Interestingly, nearby schools such as Bay View Montessori School, Humboldt Park Elementary, and Whittier Elementary generally outperform Morgandale Elementary in academic proficiency, attendance, and other key metrics, despite serving similar student populations. Whittier Elementary, a public charter school, stands out with significantly higher proficiency rates and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, suggesting that alternative educational models may be more effective in this context.

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.

My son went there for k4 and I had to pull him out after the first year. This school is gets a 1 star. There is so much wrong with this school, along with the Principal. I now have him in a better school and couldn't be happier. Close Quote

I don't know who's giving all these MPS schools one star ratings on this website, but as a parent of two Morgandale students, I think this school has been nothing short of outstanding. Close Quote

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.
