Summary:
The zip code 54748 contains a single public elementary school, Jim Falls Elementary, which serves grades K-5 and is part of the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it has shown mixed academic performance, with strengths in certain grade levels and subject areas, but struggles in others.
Jim Falls Elementary has an enrollment of 126 students and a student-teacher ratio of 13:1. The school's academic performance, as measured by the Forward Exam, shows that it outperforms the district and state averages in 4th and 5th grade English Language Arts, as well as 4th grade Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science. However, the school's 3rd grade performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics is significantly below the district and state averages, indicating a need for targeted interventions to address this disparity.
Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 25.4%, which may suggest the need to consider the impact of socioeconomic factors on student learning and provide additional support and resources to address any disparities. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 7.8% is also a potential area of concern, and the school may benefit from investigating the root causes and implementing targeted interventions to improve student attendance.
