Summary:
The city of Clayton, Wisconsin is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Clayton Elementary, Clayton High, and Clayton Middle. These schools are part of the Clayton School District.
Clayton Elementary stands out as the strongest performer, consistently ranking in the top half of Wisconsin elementary schools with a 3-star rating. The school demonstrates solid academic performance, with students outperforming the state average in several subject areas on the Forward Exam. In contrast, Clayton High has the lowest overall performance, with a 2-star rating and mixed academic results. Clayton Middle has shown improvement, with a 3-star rating in the most recent school year, but its performance has been more inconsistent compared to the elementary school.
Across the district, student demographics present some challenges, with a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and a high chronic absenteeism rate. Financial metrics vary, with Clayton Elementary spending the most per student and Clayton Middle spending the least. The district may benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions to address the areas of concern, particularly at the high school and middle school levels.
