Summary:
The city of Rib Lake, Wisconsin is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Rib Lake Elementary, Rib Lake High, and Rib Lake Middle. These schools are part of the Rib Lake School District.
Among the three schools, Rib Lake Elementary stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking in the top 20% of Wisconsin elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are significantly above state averages, with 80% or more of 3rd-5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and up to 97.5% proficient or better in Mathematics. Rib Lake Middle School also performs well, ranking in the top 40% of Wisconsin middle schools and earning 4-star ratings in recent years, with test scores generally above state averages. In contrast, Rib Lake High School lags behind the other two schools, ranking in the bottom half of Wisconsin high schools and earning only 2-3 star ratings from SchoolDigger, with test scores noticeably lower than the elementary and middle school.
Across the district, the schools have relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 7.7% at the middle school to 13.1% at the elementary school. The high school maintains a strong 92.5% graduation rate, with a 0% dropout rate. However, the district serves a relatively low-income student population, with 42.86% to 47.98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The per-student spending also varies significantly, from $12,595 at the middle school to $17,347 at the high school, which could indicate differences in resource allocation within the district.
