Summary:

Lakeside Elementary has consistently outperformed the district and state in academic proficiency, with 70.59% of its 5th-grade students achieving proficiency in English Language Arts compared to the district's 46.55% and the state's 53.75%. However, the school's performance has fluctuated over the years, ranking as high as 117 out of 1,037 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2018-2019 and as low as 733 out of 1,075 in 2015-2016.

The school's performance for White students and students with low socioeconomic status has been relatively lower compared to other subgroups.

Lakeside Elementary generally outperforms nearby schools in the Oshkosh Area School District, but some schools, such as Traeger Elementary, have shown stronger performance in certain areas. Lakeside has a lower percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds compared to some nearby schools, which may contribute to the performance gaps observed. The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, which could be factors in its academic success.

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.
