Summary:
Hatley Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the D C Everest Area School District in Hatley, Wisconsin, with 123 students and a student-teacher ratio of 14.4. While the school had a high statewide ranking of 87th out of 1,037 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2018-2019, its performance has since declined, dropping to 759th out of 1,061 in the current 2023-2024 school year with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Hatley Elementary's test scores on the Forward Exam are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts. For example, in 2023-2024, only 47.37% of 3rd graders, 30.43% of 4th graders, and 52.94% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district averages of 62.23%, 59.2%, and 59.28%, respectively. The school has also seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, from 2.9% in 2018-2019 to 7.8% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the district average. However, Hatley Elementary has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 26.83% in 2022-2023, compared to nearby Hawthorn Hills Elementary (62.93%) and Weston Elementary (59.4%).
The significant differences in performance between female and male students, as well as between low-socioeconomic status students and their peers, suggest that Hatley Elementary may need to focus on addressing achievement gaps and providing targeted support for these underperforming subgroups. To improve the school's overall performance and ranking, the D C Everest Area School District and school leadership may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's declining academic performance, increasing chronic absenteeism, and performance disparities among student subgroups.
