West Bend-Mallard Community School District

The West Bend-Mallard Community School District serves students from preschool through 12th grade across three schools: West Bend-Mallard Elementary School, West Bend-Mallard Middle School, and West Bend-Mallard High School. The district demonstrates a mix of academic performance, with the elementary school standing out as a strong performer and the middle school facing more challenges.

West Bend-Mallard Elementary School consistently outperforms state averages on ISASP assessments in English Language Arts and Mathematics, and it received a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating excellent overall performance. In contrast, West Bend-Mallard Middle School has more mixed results, with some grade levels performing above the state average and others below. West Bend-Mallard High School also demonstrates strong academic performance, with 10th and 11th-grade students outperforming the state average in English Language Arts and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 88.3%.

A significant challenge facing all three schools in the district is a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools serve a population with relatively high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 42.39% at the elementary school to 52.34% at the middle school. These socioeconomic factors may be impacting student outcomes and should be considered when evaluating the district's performance and implementing strategies to support student success.
