State School Report Card
As you know, our staff work very hard at Ixonia to make sure we are providing students with a rigorous academic environment that strives to reach all learners. We hold all students to high expectations in a nurturing way that hopefully makes them excited to be learners.
We are proud to share the annual state report card with you. Ixonia's overall rating of 83.8 places us in the "significantly exceeds expectations." This is a marked increase from the year prior when our score of 71.5 fell in the "meets expectations" category. To arrive at this rating, the state takes into account factors such as the overall achievement and growth of our 3rd and 4th graders performance on the Forward exam, attendance, and other measures of closing our achievement gap. We continue to strive for improvement and we notice these improvements of learning everyday. It's nice to see that reflected in our school data. A more detailed report can be seen below.
Thank you for being such a supportive partner in the education of your children! We are so proud of the hard-working mindset they bring to school each day.
Have a great weekend!

Gingerbread Shop 2017
The Gingerbread Shop is a long-standing Ixonia Elementary tradition that the kids LOVE!
The PTO purchases, wraps and sells presents that the students can buy for $2 for family and friends.

The Gingerbread Shop Needs Volunteers!
We need parents who can volunteer as little as one hour of their time, to set up the shop, assist students in picking out presents, wrapping and checking out.
If your child has ever purchased something from the Gingerbread Shop, you know how excited they are to have the chance to give a gift!
Simply put, the fewer volunteers we have - the fewer students we can let shop. Please help us keep this tradition going - for the kids!
Sign up below if you can volunteer.
THANK YOU!
