Goodman High

Summary:

Goodman High is a small public high school serving grades 7-12 in the rural town of Goodman, Wisconsin, with a total enrollment of just 45 students. The school is part of the Goodman-Armstrong Creek School District, which is ranked 272 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of Goodman High's key strengths is its consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 84.6% to 100% in recent years, which is notably higher than the surrounding schools of Wabeno High, Pembine High, and Laona High. The school also has relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 4.8% in recent years. However, Goodman High has experienced fluctuations in chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 13.2% to 58.2%, which could be an area for improvement.

Academically, Goodman High's performance is mixed, with the school performing above the state average in some areas, such as 8th-grade social studies and 10th-grade ACT English Language Arts, but lagging behind in others, such as 10th-grade ACT Mathematics and Science. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 50% to 60%, suggesting a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Despite these challenges, Goodman High maintains a low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 5.6 to 7.1 in recent years, which could contribute to a more personalized learning environment for its students.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
