Summary:
The Spencer Junior High/High is the sole high school serving the Spencer School District in Wisconsin. While the school has a strong 98.4% four-year graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate, its academic performance has fluctuated in recent years, with a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger for the 2023-2024 school year.
The school's performance varies across subject areas, with above-state-average results in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 6-8, but below-average performance in Social Studies, Science, and several 10th-grade subjects. Additionally, the school faces a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 15.6%, which may be impacting its overall academic achievement.

Addressing the factors contributing to the high chronic absenteeism rate and improving instruction in the weaker subject areas could be areas of focus for the school to enhance its overall effectiveness and SchoolDigger ranking.
