Student Learning is our Focus
Our daily desired student learning experience makes learning Visible; it is seen, heard, and felt in every classroom. We are building Thinking Classrooms where students are thinking longer and deeper. These practices lead to learning experiences where students have more autonomy, authentic engagement, and responsibility for their learning, a more motivating and rewarding learning experience. Our focus has led to Prescott School District being ranked in the Top 10% of all school districts in Wisconsin in Academic Progress and the Top 8% in Student Growth in 2024.
Supports for Learners
In addition to Visible learning, PSD creates school environments where ALL students can thrive and address challenges that many young people face in their mental health and well-being. Teachers and counselors provide social and emotional support through regular instruction. A partnership with Northwest Journey Guidance and Counseling provides additional services to grade 3-8 students and their families.
