Summary:
The city of Mauston, Wisconsin is home to 7 schools serving grades K-12, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools. The schools are part of the Mauston School District, which is ranked 337 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Among the standout schools in the district, iLEAD Charter School stands out with a 100% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the other high schools. However, the school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1%. Another high-performing school is Mauston Montessori Charter School, which has strong proficiency rates in 4th grade Social Studies and Science. In contrast, Mauston High School has a 95.4% four-year graduation rate, above the state average, but its test scores are generally below state averages.
The data reveals significant disparities in performance across the schools in the district, with some schools, like the charter schools, outperforming the district and state averages in certain areas, while others struggle to meet state benchmarks. Additionally, the high free and reduced lunch rates across the district suggest that the schools serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may impact academic performance. Addressing these disparities and supporting the district's students could be key priorities for the district's leadership.
