Marshfield Unified School District

The Marshfield Unified School District in Wisconsin consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 166 out of 428 in the state and rated 3 stars, but there is a significant disparity in performance between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing ones.

Grant Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with a 4-star rating and strong test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Marshfield Middle also performs well, ranking in the top half of Wisconsin middle schools and earning a 4-star rating. Meanwhile, Madison Elementary and Lincoln Elementary have lower test scores and performance metrics.

Marshfield High has a 91.3% four-year graduation rate, which is higher than the state average, and low dropout rates. However, the district's schools vary in their chronic absenteeism rates, from a low of 7.0% at Lincoln Elementary to a high of 19.1% at Madison Elementary. The district should focus on addressing these disparities and ensuring more equitable funding and resources across all schools to improve overall student outcomes.
