New London School District

The New London School District in Wisconsin serves students from 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 public charter high school. The data reveals stark contrasts in performance between the district's top-ranked schools and its lower-performing institutions, highlighting the need to address equity and improve outcomes across the board.

New London High School stands out as the district's top performer, consistently ranking among the top 34% of Wisconsin high schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. With a 94.9% 4-year graduation rate and a low 0.7% dropout rate, the school demonstrates strong academic achievement. In contrast, Catalyst Academy, the district's public charter high school, faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism, lower graduation rates, and a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

The district's elementary schools also show significant variation in performance. Parkview Elementary and Readfield Elementary rank among the top 20-23% of Wisconsin elementary schools, with strong proficiency rates in core subjects. However, Lincoln Elementary and Sugar Bush Elementary lag behind, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to improve equity and outcomes across the district.
