Randolph High

Summary:

Randolph High is a public high school located in Randolph, Wisconsin, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 201 students. The school is part of the Randolph School District, which is ranked 278 out of 428 districts in Wisconsin and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Randolph High has seen a fluctuating statewide ranking over the years, ranging from as high as 48th out of 400 Wisconsin high schools in 2018-2019 (4-star rating) to as low as 355th out of 431 in 2023-2024 (1-star rating). This inconsistent performance and declining ranking in recent years suggest that Randolph High may be struggling compared to other high schools in the state. The school's female students have generally performed better than the male students, and the school's white students also performed well, ranking 48th out of 266 Wisconsin high schools in 2018-2019. However, Randolph High has had a relatively high dropout rate, ranging from 0.0% to 1.2% over the past five years, and has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 3.4% to 22.0% during the same period.

Randolph High's performance is generally lower than the nearby schools, such as Pardeeville High, Columbus High, Rio Middle/High, Markesan High, Beaver Dam High, and Fall River High. These schools have higher statewide rankings, better graduation rates, lower dropout rates, and stronger test scores compared to Randolph High. While Randolph High has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student, these factors do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes, and the school may need to closely examine its instructional practices, student support systems, and overall school climate to address these challenges and improve student performance.

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.
