Summary:
The 53805 zip code area is home to 3 schools that span elementary, middle, and high school grades: Boscobel Elementary, Boscobel High, and Boscobel Junior High. These schools, part of the Boscobel Area School District, demonstrate a mix of strengths and areas for improvement.
Boscobel Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, ranking among the top third of Wisconsin elementary schools and outperforming the state averages in academic proficiency, particularly in 4th grade Social Studies. In contrast, Boscobel Junior High has maintained a consistent 2-star rating, with proficiency rates on the Forward Exam generally lower than the state averages, suggesting room for improvement.
Boscobel High impresses with its exceptional 96.4% 4-year graduation rate and 0.0% dropout rate, indicating the school's success in keeping students engaged and on track to complete their high school education. However, the school's performance on the ACT exam was mixed, with 25-38% of 10th-grade students scoring proficient or better in various subject areas, compared to the state average of 42-46%. Across all three schools, the relatively high percentages of free/reduced-price lunch recipients suggest the district may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which could be an important factor to consider when analyzing the schools' performance.
