The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and is ranked 237 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin, with a 2 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.
Glenwood City High School stands out as the academic leader in the district, consistently ranking among the top 25-75 high schools in Wisconsin and earning 4-5 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The high school boasts strong test scores, a 91.0% four-year graduation rate, and a low 1.3% dropout rate. In contrast, Glenwood City Elementary and Glenwood City Middle have struggled more, ranking in the bottom half of their respective school types in Wisconsin and scoring below the state averages on most assessments.
The data also reveals high chronic absenteeism rates across all three schools, around 17.7%, which may be contributing to the academic challenges faced by the elementary and middle schools. Additionally, the significant differences in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios between the schools suggest potential resource allocation imbalances within the district. The high percentages of free/reduced lunch recipients, especially at the elementary and middle schools, point to socioeconomic challenges faced by many students in the district, which may require targeted support and interventions to help them succeed academically.
