Westosha Central Union High School School District


Summary:

The Westosha Central Union High School School District in Wisconsin is home to a single high school, Central High, which has consistently ranked among the top 75 high schools in the state over the past three years. With a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, Central High boasts impressive academic performance, a high graduation rate, and a low dropout rate, all of which exceed state averages.

Central High's proficiency rates on standardized tests like the Forward Exam and ACT are notably higher than the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics and science. For instance, in the 2023-2024 school year, 48.55% of 10th-grade students at Central High were proficient or better in ACT Mathematics, compared to 42.37% statewide. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 18:1 is lower than the state average, suggesting a favorable learning environment.

While Central High's strong academic performance and favorable metrics are commendable, the relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (10.25%) may indicate that the school serves a more affluent student population, potentially raising concerns about equity and access for students from lower-income backgrounds. Nonetheless, the data highlights the importance of considering various contextual factors, such as student demographics and financial resources, when evaluating the effectiveness of a school.
