Summary:
The city of Hillsboro, Wisconsin is home to two schools: Hillsboro High School and Hillsboro Elementary School, both part of the Hillsboro School District. While Hillsboro High School has seen a steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from #262 out of 415 Wisconsin high schools in 2022-2023 to #129 out of 431 in 2024-2025, Hillsboro Elementary School faces challenges, with a lower statewide ranking of #623 out of 1,044 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2024-2025.
Hillsboro High School's performance is noteworthy, with a 4-year graduation rate of 91.0% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science for 10th-grade students are above the state averages. In contrast, Hillsboro Elementary School's test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades are generally below the state averages, and the school has a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% in 2023-2024 compared to the high school's rate of 17.7%.
Both schools have relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratios compared to state averages, suggesting that the district is investing resources into its schools. However, the academic performance at the elementary school level may indicate a need for further analysis and targeted interventions to address the challenges faced by Hillsboro Elementary School and improve the overall educational outcomes in the Hillsboro School District.
