Summary:
The Peshtigo Middle is the sole middle school serving the Peshtigo School District in Wisconsin. While the school has seen fluctuating performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 406 out of 617 in 2021-2022 to 511 out of 640 in 2022-2023, its academic achievement has been mixed, with proficiency rates below the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics, but higher than average in 8th grade Social Studies.
Peshtigo Middle faces some socioeconomic challenges, with a 32.34% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating a significant portion of students come from low-income households. The school's student-teacher ratio of 13.7 is slightly lower than the state average, and it spent $10,944 per student in the 2020-2021 school year, which is higher than the state average. However, the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 10.6% in 2022-2023 is a concern and may be an area that the district and school need to address.
Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of Peshtigo Middle's performance, with areas of strength and areas that need improvement. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and mixed academic achievement suggest that the district and school may need to focus on improving core academic areas and addressing socioeconomic challenges that could be impacting student learning and attendance.
