Ronald R Albrecht Elementary

Summary:

Ronald R Albrecht Elementary is a public elementary school in Brodhead, Wisconsin, serving 471 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Brodhead School District, which is ranked 339 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Ronald R Albrecht Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools over the past 10 years, with proficiency rates on the Forward Exam generally below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rates ranged from 38.71% to 48.44%, compared to the state average of 52.07% to 53.75%. The school's performance is also below average for students from low-income backgrounds and those with special needs.

However, the school has some bright spots, including a 0% chronic absenteeism rate in 2022-2023, which is significantly lower than the state average. Nearby schools, such as Brooklyn Elementary, Northside Elementary, and Juda Elementary, generally outperform Ronald R Albrecht Elementary on academic measures, which may be due in part to their lower percentages of students from low-income families. To address these challenges, the school and district may want to consider implementing targeted interventions, engaging families, and collaborating with higher-performing nearby schools to identify and implement best practices.

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.
