Summary:
The Freeman School District 33-1 in South Dakota is home to three exceptional elementary schools: Freeman Elementary - 02, Tschetter Colony Elementary - 03, and Wolf Creek Colony Elementary - 04. These schools consistently outperform state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency, with the smaller Tschetter Colony Elementary - 03 and Wolf Creek Colony Elementary - 04 demonstrating exceptional academic achievement.
Wolf Creek Colony Elementary - 04 stands out with the highest ELA proficiency rates in the district, with 68.42% of students proficient or better, compared to the district average of 60% and the state average of 50.04%. Additionally, both Tschetter Colony Elementary - 03 and Wolf Creek Colony Elementary - 04 have an impressive 0.0% chronic absenteeism rate, suggesting effective strategies to promote consistent student attendance.
While the per-student spending across the three schools is relatively similar, the data reveals potential equity concerns, as Freeman Elementary - 02 has a higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients compared to the other two schools. This suggests the need to further investigate the distribution of resources and support for economically disadvantaged students within the Freeman School District 33-1.
