Dodgeland High

Summary:

Dodgeland High is a public high school located in Juneau, Wisconsin, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 281 students. The school is part of the Dodgeland School District, which is ranked 292 out of 428 school districts in Wisconsin and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dodgeland High faces several challenges, including inconsistent performance, lower test scores, higher chronic absenteeism, and a higher percentage of low socioeconomic status students compared to nearby schools like Columbus High, Waupun Area Senior High, and Watertown High. Dodgeland High's 4-year graduation rates have ranged from a low of 1.7% to a high of 100% in recent years, while the nearby schools have more consistent graduation rates around 93-98%. Additionally, Dodgeland High has had relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 11.5% to 27%, significantly higher than the 4.7% to 21.7% range of the nearby schools.

Dodgeland High's test scores, particularly in mathematics and science, are consistently lower than the state and district averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 34.48% of Dodgeland High students were proficient or better in ACT Mathematics, compared to the state average of 42.37%. The school's higher percentage of low socioeconomic status students, ranking 106 out of 326 Wisconsin high schools in this metric, may be contributing to its lower academic performance. To improve, Dodgeland High may need to learn from the practices of the higher-performing nearby schools, implement targeted interventions for specific student subgroups, and address the unique needs of its socioeconomically disadvantaged student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
