Summary:
The Rhinelander, Wisconsin area is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Rhinelander School District, except for Sugar Camp Elementary which is part of the Three Lakes School District. The data reveals significant variation in academic performance across the schools, with Sugar Camp Elementary standing out as a high-performing outlier compared to the other Rhinelander schools.
Sugar Camp Elementary consistently performs very well, ranking in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools, with high proficiency rates across all subjects and low chronic absenteeism. Central Elementary also performs well, ranking in the top 50% of Wisconsin elementary schools, with strong proficiency rates, particularly in Mathematics and Social Studies/Science. Meanwhile, Pelican Elementary stands out for its strong Mathematics proficiency, with several grade levels exceeding 50% proficiency.
The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and academic performance, with schools serving higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students tending to have lower test scores. Additionally, the relatively low proficiency rates at Rhinelander High School compared to the state averages in several subjects may indicate a need to strengthen middle school preparation to better prepare students for success in high school.
