Kickapoo Area School District

The Kickapoo Area School District in Wisconsin operates two schools: Kickapoo High and Kickapoo Elementary. Both schools have relatively low rankings within the state, with Kickapoo High ranked 328 out of 431 Wisconsin high schools and Kickapoo Elementary ranked 827 out of 1,061 Wisconsin elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year.

Kickapoo High has a 97.3% four-year graduation rate and a 0.4% dropout rate, but its test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are below the state averages. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.2%. Kickapoo Elementary, on the other hand, has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 9.8%, but its test scores are also generally below the state averages.

Both schools have high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, with Kickapoo High at 41.89% and Kickapoo Elementary at 57.07%, indicating that the district may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, the difference in spending per student between the high school and elementary school ($13,375 and $14,333, respectively) may suggest an imbalance in resource allocation within the district.
