Sheboygan Falls Middle generally performs well, with higher test scores compared to the state average, particularly in English Language Arts and Social Studies. The school also ranks well for certain student subgroups, such as special education students and low socioeconomic status students.

While the school outperforms some nearby schools like those in the Sheboygan Area School District, it trails higher-ranked schools such as Kohler Middle and Cedar Grove-Belgium Middle.

Sheboygan Falls Middle's spending per student is on par with nearby schools, but its student-teacher ratio is higher than some of the higher-performing schools in the area. The school has maintained very low dropout rates, but has seen fluctuations in chronic absenteeism, with the 2022-2023 rate of 9.7% being higher than previous years. Overall, Sheboygan Falls Middle is a solid middle school with some strengths, but it faces challenges in maintaining consistent academic achievement and addressing the needs of all student subgroups.

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.
