Summary:
The 53205 zip code of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is home to 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. This area faces significant educational challenges, with most schools performing well below the Milwaukee School District and Wisconsin state averages on standardized tests.
The standout schools in this area are the two Milwaukee College Preparatory School campuses, which have the highest test scores and lowest dropout rates. However, these schools also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates. In contrast, Roosevelt Middle School has the lowest test scores, highest dropout rate, and highest chronic absenteeism rate in the data set. The two public high schools, Alliance School of Milwaukee and Shalom High, also have very low graduation rates and high dropout rates.
Despite the high per-student spending in these schools, which is above the Milwaukee School District average, the data suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to the educational challenges faced by the schools in the 53205 zip code. Factors such as school leadership, teacher quality, and student engagement may play a more significant role in improving academic outcomes. The data highlights the significant educational disparities within the Milwaukee School District, underscoring the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by these schools and their communities.
