Summary:
The Crandon School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Crandon Middle, which serves grades 6-8. Based on the available data, Crandon Middle is a struggling school that consistently performs below the state average across multiple metrics, including academic proficiency, dropout rates, and chronic absenteeism.
Crandon Middle is ranked 517 out of 641 Wisconsin middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year and has a low 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science are all significantly below the state averages, with particularly low mathematics proficiency rates. Additionally, Crandon Middle has a concerning 2.5% dropout rate and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 33.9%.
While Crandon Middle spends more per student than the state average, the school's persistent underperformance suggests that the resources may not be effectively allocated to address the underlying challenges. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population, may be a contributing factor to the school's struggles. Targeted interventions and support focused on improving academic outcomes, reducing dropout rates, and addressing chronic absenteeism will be crucial for Crandon Middle to provide a better educational experience for its students.
