Milwaukee College Preparatory School -- Lloyd Street

Summary:

Milwaukee College Preparatory School -- Lloyd Street is a public charter elementary school serving 490 students in grades PK-8 in a low-income area of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Despite being a charter school, the school has consistently underperformed, ranking in the bottom 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past decade and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics lagging behind the Milwaukee School District and the state of Wisconsin. For example, in 2023-2024, only 26.53% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 21.43% for the Milwaukee School District and 52.07% statewide. The school also faces high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.2% to 30.7% over the past 5 years, which likely contributes to its low academic performance. Additionally, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 87.96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, while also serving predominantly low-income student populations, generally perform better than Milwaukee College Preparatory School -- Lloyd Street on academic measures. For instance, Highland Community School, a public charter school located just 1 mile away, has significantly higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. Despite the higher spending per student at Milwaukee College Preparatory School -- Lloyd Street, the school has not shown any significant improvement in its academic performance or other key metrics over the past decade.

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.
