Summary:
The Owen-Withee School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Owen-Withee Junior High, which serves grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger and a ranking of 483 out of 641 Wisconsin middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year.
While Owen-Withee Junior High has a 0.0% dropout rate, it faces challenges in other areas. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are generally lower than the state averages, with the exception of 6th grade Mathematics. The school's proficiency rates in Social Studies and Science for 8th grade are also lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school's ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates have declined from the 2022-2023 school year to the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting a need for the school to focus on improving academic performance, particularly in the upper grades.
The school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 11.6%, which can negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes. Furthermore, with nearly half of the students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school may need to consider the impact of socioeconomic factors on student performance and implement appropriate support systems to ensure all students have the resources they need to succeed.
