Summary:
The Drummond Area School District in Wisconsin operates three schools: Drummond Elementary, Drummond High, and Drummond Junior High. The district's schools serve students from elementary through high school, with a predominantly white student population and a sizable percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Drummond Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with students consistently scoring above the state average on state assessments, particularly in 4th and 6th grades. The school also maintains a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to the district's high schools. In contrast, Drummond Junior High students struggle to meet state proficiency levels, with only 26-36% of 7th and 8th graders scoring proficient or better in ELA and Math.
At the high school level, Drummond High stands out with an impressive 96.6% four-year graduation rate and a relatively low dropout rate of 2.8%. However, the school also faces a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 42.9%, significantly higher than the elementary and middle school levels. This disparity in attendance rates across the district's schools warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student engagement.
