Summary:

The Wolsey Wessington School District 02-6 in South Dakota is home to a single high school, Wolsey Wessington High School - 01, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking and performance over the past few years, with a 4-star rating in the 2024-2025 school year but lower ratings in previous years.

Wolsey Wessington High School - 01 has an enrollment of 102 students and a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 12.5. The school's graduation rate was 86.4% in the 2024-2025 school year, and its dropout rate was 2.6%. However, the school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science have been somewhat inconsistent, with some years performing better than others compared to the state averages. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population, 42.16%, comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the school's free/reduced lunch rate.

Despite the school's fluctuating performance, it spends $15,735 per student, which is higher than the state average. This could suggest a focus on providing resources and support for the students, but it's unclear how this spending is allocated and whether it is effectively improving student outcomes. Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of Wolsey Wessington High School - 01, with both strengths and areas for improvement that the school and Wolsey Wessington School District 02-6 may need to address to support student success.
