Brooklyn’s public schools outscore 78% of Wisconsin districts

50% of students in Brooklyn’s public schools are proficient in math, above the Wisconsin average (39%). The grade covers the public school district serving Brooklyn, from kindergarten through graduation, on state tests and graduation. Each state writes its own tests, so this is the one TownRatings grade compared within Wisconsin, not nationally.
