Cumberland School District

The Cumberland School District in Wisconsin consists of 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative virtual school. The district serves a diverse student population with varying academic performance and resource levels across the schools.

The standout school in the district is Island City Virtual Academy, an alternative virtual school that boasts a 100% four-year graduation rate and 0% dropout rate. However, this school has significantly lower spending per student at $5,753 compared to the other schools in the district. In contrast, Cumberland High School stands out with a high four-year graduation rate of 97.2% and a 0% dropout rate, performing above the state average on standardized tests.

The remaining schools, Cumberland Elementary and Cumberland Middle, generally perform below the state averages on the Forward Exam, with some exceptions in specific grade levels and subject areas. The district-wide student demographics indicate a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.04% at Island City Virtual Academy to 48.75% at Cumberland Elementary, which may present challenges and equity concerns for the district to address.
