Greenwood Elementary

Summary:

Greenwood Elementary is a public elementary school located in Greenwood, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 197 students. The school is part of the Greenwood School District, which is ranked 334 out of 428 districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenwood Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a high of 195 out of 1,037 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 598 out of 1,061 in 2023-2024. The school's performance on the Forward Exam is mixed, with some grades performing above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while others are below. For example, in 2023-2024, 6th-grade students at Greenwood Elementary outperformed the state average in both English Language Arts (60% proficient or better vs. 54.1%) and Mathematics (88% proficient or better vs. 53.55%), but 4th-grade students struggled, with only 30.77% proficient or better in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 53.42%, and 57.69% proficient or better in Mathematics compared to the state average of 55.05%. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 1.3% in 2019-2020 to 25.3% in 2020-2021, likely due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Greenwood Elementary's performance is generally lower than that of nearby schools, such as Nasonville Elementary (part of the Marshfield Unified School District) and Spencer Elementary (part of the Spencer School District), which have demonstrated stronger academic performance across multiple grade levels. Additionally, Greenwood Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 49.75% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

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.
