La Causa Charter School

Summary:

La Causa Charter School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a city ranked 417 out of 428 districts in the state and with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, La Causa Charter School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past decade, also earning a 0-star rating.

The school's academic performance is a major concern, with only 11.11% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2023-2024, compared to 21.43% for the Milwaukee School District and 52.07% for the state. La Causa Charter School also struggles with extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.0% to 62.6% over the past 5 years, and a concerning increase in dropout rates, from 0.0% in 2019-2020 to 2.6% in 2020-2021. The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 87.96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

When comparing La Causa Charter School to other nearby schools in the Milwaukee School District, such as Hayes Bilingual School and Vieau Elementary, it becomes clear that La Causa is an outlier in terms of academic performance and other key metrics. Despite spending over $15,000 per student, La Causa Charter School is struggling to achieve academic success, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as school leadership, teacher quality, and instructional practices, may be contributing to the school's poor performance. The combination of low academic achievement, high chronic absenteeism, and increasing dropout rates at La Causa Charter School suggests that the school is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.

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.
