Summary:
The New Lisbon Junior High/High is the sole high school serving the New Lisbon School District in Wisconsin. While the school maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate, its academic performance and statewide ranking have declined in recent years, indicating significant challenges that need to be addressed.
The school's statewide ranking has dropped from 305 out of 391 schools in 2021-2022 to 389 out of 415 schools in 2022-2023, suggesting a decline in overall performance compared to other high schools in the state. Additionally, the school's proficiency rates on standardized tests are significantly lower than the state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, with particularly low performance in 7th grade English Language Arts and 10th grade Social Studies.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes, these factors alone do not appear to be sufficient in addressing the academic challenges faced by the school. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that the school serves a population with a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to the academic performance issues. Addressing these challenges will likely require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs and circumstances of the school and its student population.
