Flambeau High

Summary:

Flambeau High is a public high school located in Tony, Wisconsin, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 141 students. The school is part of the Flambeau School District, which is ranked 379 out of 428 school districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of Flambeau High's notable strengths is its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 92.5% to 100% over the past five years, which is higher than the nearby Holcombe High, Bruce High, and Ladysmith High. However, the school's test scores in subjects like Social Studies, English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the state and district averages, indicating academic performance is an area for improvement. Additionally, Flambeau High has experienced higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.8% to 38.5% over the past five years, which is a concern compared to the nearby schools.

Despite the academic challenges, Flambeau High has maintained impressive graduation rates, suggesting the school is able to support students in completing their high school education. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 51.77% to 61.76% over the past three years, also indicates the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. Addressing the underlying causes of chronic absenteeism and improving academic outcomes could be important focus areas for Flambeau High to better serve its students and prepare them for college and career.

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.

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.
