MADISON, Wis. — The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction released its report cards Tuesday, evaluating how each of the state’s school districts performed last school year.
DPI officials said 358 of the 377 public school districts met, exceeded or significantly exceeded expectations. Additionally, 24 districts moved up one accountability rating. Each district is given a score based on achievement, growth, outcomes for target groups and how many students are on track to graduate.
Whitefish Bay School District saw the highest score in the state among K4-12 districts, 93.2. The district registered a 91.4 achievement score and a 99.2 growth score. Menominee Indian School District was given the lowest score in the state among K4-12 districts, 48.4. The district’s achievement score was 12.1.
Most districts in south-central Wisconsin met expectations last year, including the Madison Metropolitan School District. MMSD recorded an overall score of 67.5. That includes a 58.4 ELA achievement score and a 55.6 Mathematics achievement score. MMSD’s growth score was 73.6 and its on-track-to-graduate score was 77.
The School District of Janesville also met expectations with a 60.2 score. That’s a rise from last year’s 56.8. The district had an achievement score of 54.5, a growth score of 56.5, a target group outcomes score of 50.2, and an on-track-to-graduate score of 78.9.
“We are pleased that the work our team has put in over the past year has yielded improved results,” SDJ Superintendent Mark Holzman said. “We continue to emphasize the importance of literacy and math skills, and of course, how vital it is that students are in school engaged in learning.”
There were 24 area districts that exceeded expectations. The Middleton-Cross Plains Area School District posted a 79.1 overall score and the Waunakee Community School District recorded an 80.7.
Two area districts fell short, meeting few expectations. The Baraboo School District had a score of 56.4, with a 56.3 ELA score and a 55 Mathematics score. The School District of Beloit was given a 48.7, the second score lowest in the state, with a 32.8 ELA score and a 28.1 Mathematics score.
Beloit’s growth score was 47 and its target group outcomes score was 39.2. The district’s on-track-to-graduate score was 65.2.
