Best Public Schools in Horicon, WI


Summary:

The Horicon School District in Horicon, Wisconsin consists of three schools: Horicon Elementary School, Horicon High School, and Horicon Middle School. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and has a relatively high rate of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the presence of significant economic challenges in the community.

Horicon Elementary School stands out as the top performer in the district, consistently ranking among the top 10-15% of Wisconsin elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students excel on standardized tests, scoring 20-30 percentage points above the state average in English Language Arts and Math. In contrast, Horicon High School has struggled, ranking in the bottom half of Wisconsin high schools in recent years, with test scores lagging behind the state averages, particularly in Math. Horicon Middle School falls somewhere in the middle, ranking in the top 20-25% of Wisconsin middle schools with test scores above the state averages.

Despite the district's high spending per student, which may be contributing to the strong performance at the elementary and middle school levels, the significant gap in performance between the elementary school and the high school suggests a need to examine the transition and alignment between the school levels. Additionally, the district's high free/reduced lunch rates indicate that the schools are serving a population with significant economic challenges, which may require additional resources and support to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
