Summary:
The Wausaukee School District consists of three schools: Wausaukee Elementary, Wausaukee High, and Wausaukee Middle, serving students from elementary through high school. The district faces some academic challenges, particularly at the elementary and middle school levels, but the high school stands out as a strong performer with high graduation rates and low dropout rates.
Wausaukee High School is the standout in the district, with a 96.6% 4-year graduation rate and a low 2.2% dropout rate, both significantly better than the district and state averages. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 4.8%, indicating that students are engaged and attending regularly. In contrast, Wausaukee Elementary and Wausaukee Middle struggle academically, with proficiency rates in core subjects well below the state averages.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.82% at Wausaukee High to 63.44% at Wausaukee Middle, suggests that the district faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting academic performance. Addressing the needs of economically disadvantaged students and ensuring equitable resource allocation across the schools could be key focus areas for the Wausaukee School District to improve overall student outcomes.
