Ideal

Summary:

Ideal is a public charter elementary school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin that serves grades PK-8. With consistently low academic performance and high rates of chronic absenteeism, Ideal faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes.

Ideal's academic performance, as measured by the Forward Exam, is well below state and Milwaukee School District averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 22.22% of 3rd graders at Ideal were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 52.07% statewide and 21.43% in the Milwaukee School District. Ideal has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 38.7% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the state and district averages. These academic challenges are likely exacerbated by Ideal's high-poverty student population, with over 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years.

Comparing Ideal to nearby schools within the Milwaukee School District, such as Lowell International Elementary, Whittier Elementary, and Cooper Elementary, highlights the importance of factors beyond just funding in driving student success. These nearby schools, while still struggling, tend to have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and serve a less economically disadvantaged student population than Ideal.

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.
