Summary:

The Woonsocket School District 55-4 in South Dakota consists of two schools: Woonsocket Elementary - 03 and Woonsocket High School - 01. While the district as a whole has room for improvement, with a ranking of 88 out of 147 districts in the state, the schools within the district show some notable strengths and areas for focus.

Woonsocket High School - 01 stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 86.4% for the 2024-2025 school year, exceeding the state average. Additionally, 100% of 12th-grade students at the high school were proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2024-2025, significantly outperforming the state average of 31.41%. However, the high school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, going from 92nd out of 138 high schools in 2022-2023 to 118th out of 141 in 2023-2024, which is a concerning trend.

At the elementary level, Woonsocket Elementary - 03 demonstrates strong math performance, with 50.91% of students proficient or better in math across all grades in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 43.49%. However, the school's English Language Arts performance lags behind the state average, and it has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2%, which is an area of concern that the district should address.
