SOUTH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

South Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Hartland-Lakeside J3 School District school district, located in Hartland, WI with about 259 students offering grade levels from 3rd Grade to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 19 teachers, South Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
