Summary:
The city of Tigerton, Wisconsin is home to two schools: Tigerton High School and Tigerton Elementary School, both part of the Tigerton School District. While Tigerton High boasts an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate, both schools face significant challenges in academic performance, with relatively low test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates compared to state averages.
Tigerton High School has a statewide ranking between 283 and 384 out of 400-410 Wisconsin high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects range from 25% to 64%, well below state averages. Additionally, Tigerton High has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5%, much higher than the state average. In contrast, Tigerton Elementary School has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 10%, but its statewide ranking is between 760 and 845 out of 1,061-1,067 Wisconsin elementary schools, also with a 1-star rating.
Both Tigerton High School and Tigerton Elementary School serve a student population with a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a relatively low-income student body. Despite the schools' higher-than-average spending per student, the academic performance suggests that the additional funding has not yet translated into improved student outcomes. Addressing the underlying issues and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to enhance the educational experience and outcomes for students in Tigerton.
