Sun Prairie Area School District


Summary:

The Sun Prairie Area School District in Wisconsin serves over 8,000 students across 15 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

Horizon Elementary and Royal Oaks Elementary are two of the highest-performing elementary schools in the district, with 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger and strong proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. At the high school level, Sun Prairie West High stands out with a 98.2% four-year graduation rate and excellent performance on ACT and Forward Exam assessments.

However, the data also reveals significant variation in school performance within the district. While some schools, such as the middle schools (Central Heights Middle, Patrick Marsh Middle, and Prairie View Middle) and the high-performing elementary schools, demonstrate strong academic achievement, other schools, particularly the alternative high school (Prairie Phoenix Academy) and some high-poverty elementary schools, face significant challenges with low proficiency rates and high chronic absenteeism. The district may need to address these disparities to ensure equitable access to high-quality education for all students.
