Best Public Schools in Neopit, WI

Neopit, Wisconsin has two schools serving grades K–8 in this data set: Menominee Indian Middle (middle school, grades 6–8, 206 students) and Menominee Tribal School (listed as elementary but spanning grades K–8, 129 students), for a combined 335 students. The area summary lists one elementary, one middle, zero high schools, and zero alternative schools — there is no high school in Neopit, so students must look elsewhere after grade 8. Economic need is very high at both: free/reduced lunch is 89.81% at Menominee Indian Middle and 97.67% at Menominee Tribal School.

Menominee Indian Middle carries nearly all the outcome data, and the picture is challenging. Its district, Menominee Indian School District, ranks 431 of 432 with 0 stars, and the school's rank history sits in the bottom few percent of Wisconsin schools (percentiles of 3, 4, and 5 over three years). Chronic absenteeism is 67.0%, compared with 56.3% for the district and 17.3% for the state — roughly two of every three students. In 2025–2026, proficiency ranged from 2.99% in 8th-grade math to 19.40% in 8th-grade social studies, while comparable state rates were 51.86% to 64.63%, gaps of roughly 38 to 51 percentage points. Math is weakest, staying under 10% in every tested grade in both years except 7th-grade math, which reached 9.09%. One positive: the dropout rate is 0.0%, below the district's 0.7% and the state's 1.1%, though that measure matters most at the high school level.

Menominee Tribal School has almost no outcome data here — no test scores, rankings, attendance, dropout, or spending — so its performance cannot be compared directly. It stands out for a student-teacher ratio of 8.0, lower than Menominee Indian Middle's 11.4, along with its near-universal free/reduced lunch rate. Because the two schools overlap in grades 6–8 and Neopit has no high school, families have limited local options and little comparable academic data for one of the two schools.
