Summary:
The Wausaukee School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Wausaukee Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin middle schools over the past three years, with a 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wausaukee Middle's academic performance is a significant concern, with test scores in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science falling well below the state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 27.78% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 50.36%. The school also faces challenges with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 63.44% in 2022-2023, and a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 12.9% in the same year.
While Wausaukee Middle has a 0.0% dropout rate, the consistently low academic performance and socioeconomic challenges suggest a need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support student learning and success. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive approach involving collaboration with the broader community to ensure that all students at Wausaukee Middle have the opportunity to thrive.
