Summary:
The 54437 zip code is home to two schools, Greenwood Elementary and Greenwood High, both part of the Greenwood School District. While Greenwood High has maintained an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate, Greenwood Elementary has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 345th out of 1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 598th out of 1,061 in 2023-2024.
Both schools have relatively high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. However, the schools have lower than average student-teacher ratios, suggesting smaller class sizes. Academically, the schools have mixed results compared to state averages, with some grade levels and subject areas performing above the state average, while others fall below.
The significant difference in chronic absenteeism rates between the elementary and high school levels, with Greenwood High reporting a rate of 24.4% compared to Greenwood Elementary's 9.6%, is an area that deserves further attention. Understanding the underlying causes and implementing attendance-boosting initiatives could be beneficial for the district.
