River Ridge School Report Cards

District Report  Card

We have had a wonderful fall at River Ridge! We are excited about our students, our staff, and our community. As a learning community, we are continually looking to improve River Ridge. The school report card is one resource we use to reflect on our strengths and areas for improvement. 

The Department of Public Instruction (DPI) is required by state statute (Wis. Stat. 115.385) to generate a school report card and district report card for every publicly funded school and district in the state. The report cards are intended to help schools and districts use performance data to celebrate successes and improve their efforts to prepare students for their futures. These public report cards can be found on the DPI website.

At the Core of the Report Cards: Four Priority Areas

Our school and district report cards are built around four key priority areas, each contributing to an overall accountability score:

Achievement - proficiency in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics on the annual state assessments
Growth - year-to-year progress in ELA and math achievement
Target Group Outcomes - outcomes for students with the lowest test scores: the Target Group.
On-Track to Graduation - reliable predictors of how successfully students are progressing toward completing their K-12 education. 

These priority area scores combine into an overall accountability score ranging from 0 to 100. This score, displayed prominently on the report card's front page, is not a "percent correct" measurement but a comprehensive evaluation.

Schools and districts are then assigned one of five rating categories, from Fails to Meet Expectations to Significantly Exceeds Expectations, accompanied by a corresponding 1-to-5-star rating system.

This is something that the River Ridge School and River Ridge Community should take great pride in. We are very proud of our school and our proud of our kids!

Sincerely,
Clay Koenig
Superintendent
River Ridge School District
