Summary:
The city of Juneau, Wisconsin (Dodge County) is served by exactly one public high school: Dodgeland High, a grades 9–12 school at 401 S Western Ave with 233 students — small enough that each grade level averages about 58 students. It is the only high school in the Dodgeland School District, so every reported district figure matches the school figure exactly; the only meaningful comparisons are against Wisconsin statewide averages and against the school's own past performance.
The strongest news is completion: Dodgeland High graduates 96.4% of students, 4.4 points above Wisconsin's 92.0%. Staffing and resources also look favorable, with a student-teacher ratio of 11.3 and per-pupil spending of $17,067, in a community where 43.78% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Proficiency, however, has slipped sharply. In 2024–25 the school's four-subject average was essentially at state parity (45.28% vs. 45.61%); in 2025–26 it fell to 35.94%, roughly 9.8 points below the state, while the state average barely moved. Science dropped about 17 points, from above the state (44.07%) to 27.08%, now 16.1 points behind. Math fell to 31.25%, and English Language Arts to 41.67%. Social Studies was the only subject to improve, reaching 43.75%, about 4.5 points below the state.
Engagement measures lean the wrong way: chronic absenteeism is 20.4% — about one in five students — above both the district (17.6%) and state (17.3%), and the dropout rate is 1.7% versus the state's 1.1%. Dodgeland High has held a 2-star rating for three years (31st percentile in 2025–26), while the Dodgeland School District is rated 1 star. Because the tested 10th-grade cohorts number only about 50 students, a dozen students can shift results by double digits, so the decline is real but not yet a confirmed trend.
