HARTLAND SCHOOL OF COMMUNITY LEARNING

Hartland School of Community Learning 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 86 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 3 teachers, Hartland School of Community Learning has a student/teacher ratio of about 28:1. 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.

The Hartland School of Community Learning (HSCL) is a unique, tuition-free public charter school located in Hartland, Wisconsin, serving students from kindergarten through eighth grade. Founded on the principle of fostering a deep connection between education and the local community, the school emphasizes a multi-age classroom environment. This structure allows students to learn at their own pace, encouraging individualized growth and collaboration across different grade levels rather than adhering to a rigid, age-based curriculum.

At the core of HSCL’s philosophy is the integration of project-based learning and community involvement. The school prioritizes a "hands-on" approach where students engage in real-world experiences, often involving local businesses, civic organizations, and community mentors. By blending academic rigor with a focus on personal character development and civic responsibility, the Hartland School of Community Learning aims to cultivate lifelong learners who are well-prepared to contribute positively to their society.
