Summary:
The Lena School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Lena Middle, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has a relatively small student population of 87 and a lower-than-average student-teacher ratio, its academic performance is a mixed bag compared to state averages.
Lena Middle is ranked 436 out of 641 Wisconsin middle schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance has been consistent over the past few years, with proficiency rates above the state average in 6th and 7th grade Mathematics, but significantly below in 8th grade English Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 8% may be a contributing factor to these academic challenges.
With higher-than-average per-student spending, Lena Middle may have an opportunity to optimize its resource allocation to better support student learning. By addressing the academic performance concerns, particularly in the upper grades, and exploring ways to improve student attendance, the school could enhance its overall effectiveness and better serve its student population.
