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.

Winneconne is overall a bad school. Winneconne is always bragging about how good their school is and how everyone is treated equally. This is not true. Number 1 teachers. Some teachers are good but then you have your bad teachers. The good teachers will help you when you need it and respect you no matter your race. But then you got your bad teachers they will help you but not very respectfully. They will single you out from all the other students and treat you different just because of your race. Me not being a white student I get disrespected a lot. For example today I had the same answers as my white friend next to me and he said great job and gave him a 100. He then comes over to me and tells me everything i supposedly did wrong and downgrades me. There have been many cases like this throughout my school career. Even throughout elementary and middle school I've been disrespected by students and staff to many times. Thru out elementary school the students would call me little brown boy and I would go home crying to my mom everyday and even getting physically bullied on the playground. In middle school the teachers i feel most of the teachers didn't respect me like they respected the other kids just because of my race. Now being a high schooler its sad to say nothing has changed. Even though they claim to be one of the best schools and treat everyone equally, its just not a thing. I do not recommend sending your kids to this school. Close Quote

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.
