Saukville Elementary

Summary:

Saukville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 335 students in grades PK-4 in Saukville, Wisconsin, which is part of the Port Washington-Saukville School District. The school has shown strong academic performance, ranking in the top 15% of Wisconsin elementary schools in 2021-2022 and the top 14% in 2020-2021. Saukville Elementary's 3rd and 4th-grade students have outperformed the state and district averages in most subject areas, with particularly impressive results for its Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

While Saukville Elementary's overall performance is on par with or slightly below its nearby counterparts in the Port Washington-Saukville district, such as Lincoln Elementary and Dunwiddie Elementary, the school's support for its Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students stands out. However, the school's performance for its White students has been more average, ranking in the bottom 50% of Wisconsin elementary schools in 2023-2024. Additionally, Saukville Elementary has experienced an increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 3.6% in 2020-2021 to 9.1% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the district average.

Saukville Elementary's higher spending per student compared to the district average suggests that the school may have access to additional resources and funding to support student learning. It would be interesting to explore how this additional funding is being utilized and whether it is contributing to the school's strong performance for certain student subgroups. Overall, Saukville Elementary is a strong-performing school, but the increase in chronic absenteeism and the performance gap compared to some of the higher-performing nearby schools in the Cedarburg and Grafton districts are areas that warrant further investigation and potential improvement.

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.
