Sugar Camp Elementary has consistently ranked in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 5 years, with a current ranking of 184 out of 1,061 schools. The school's performance on the Forward Exam is particularly strong, with 4th and 5th-grade students consistently scoring above the state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

While Sugar Camp Elementary outperforms the nearby Three Lakes Elementary school in several academic areas, Three Lakes Elementary has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to its slightly lower academic performance. Another nearby school, Northwoods Community Elementary, has a similar academic performance to Sugar Camp Elementary, with both schools ranking in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools. However, the significant spike in chronic absenteeism at Sugar Camp Elementary in the 2021-2022 school year is an area of concern that requires further investigation and attention.

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.
