Summary:
The city of Frederic, Wisconsin is home to two schools: Frederic 6-12 School and Frederic Elementary, which serve students from grades 6-12 and K-5, respectively. While both schools face some challenges, Frederic Elementary stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics, where its proficiency rates exceed the Frederic School District and state averages.
In contrast, Frederic 6-12 School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 189th out of 390 Wisconsin high schools in 2020-2021 to 311th out of 415 in 2022-2023. This suggests the school may be underperforming compared to its peers. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 35.6%, which could be contributing to its academic challenges.
Both schools serve a significant percentage of students from low-income families, with over 50% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This highlights the potential socioeconomic challenges faced by the Frederic community and the importance of ensuring equitable access to resources and support for these students. Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of the schools in Frederic, with Frederic Elementary standing out as a strong performer and Frederic 6-12 School facing areas for improvement.
