Winter Elementary

Summary:

Winter Elementary is a public elementary school located in Winter, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 113 students. The school is part of the Winter School District, which is ranked 354 out of 428 school districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winter Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the Forward Exam, has been consistently below the state average in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics across grades 3-5. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA ranged from 45.45% (5th grade) to 50% (3rd and 4th grades), compared to the state average of 52.07% (3rd grade), 53.42% (4th grade), and 53.75% (5th grade). In Mathematics, the school's performance was also below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 43.75% (4th grade) to 72.73% (5th grade), compared to the state average of 56.58% (3rd grade), 55.05% (4th grade), and 54.24% (5th grade). The school's academic performance has been declining over the past few years, with proficiency rates dropping across most grade levels and subject areas.

Winter Elementary has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 5.7% in the 2019-2020 school year to 21.4% in the 2021-2022 school year. This is a concerning trend, as high chronic absenteeism can negatively impact student learning and academic achievement. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 69.03% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's spending per student has fluctuated over the past few years, and it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.6 to 12.9 students per teacher over the past three school years.

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.
