Elkhart Lake Elementary/Middle accounts for 69.8% of all Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District a distant remainder — means Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District student-counselor ratio is 283:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District is typically wider than the Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District-aggregate figure suggests.
Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District chronic absenteeism rate is 7.8% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
