Stevens Point Area Public School District

The Stevens Point Area Public School District consists of 14 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative learning center. The district serves the Stevens Point area and has a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools based on various metrics.

Two elementary schools stand out as top performers in the district: Bannach Elementary and Madison Elementary. These schools have consistently high proficiency rates, low chronic absenteeism, and relatively low percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, the Point of Discovery School, a public charter high school, stands out with a high 10th grade social studies proficiency rate and a low dropout rate, despite having a high chronic absenteeism rate.

The district's high schools generally have strong graduation rates, with Stevens Point Area Senior High at 95.0% and Point of Discovery School at 88.2%. However, the alternative learning center, Charles F Fernandez Center Alt Learning, has the highest dropout rate in the district at 11.8%. The data suggests that the district may benefit from targeted interventions and resource allocation to support its lower-performing schools and address challenges such as chronic absenteeism.
