Summary:
The North Fond Du Lac School District in Wisconsin consists of 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, serving students from early childhood through 12th grade. The district faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance across most schools compared to state averages, high rates of chronic absenteeism, and wide disparities in per-student spending and resources.
Among the standout schools, Treffert Way for the Exceptional Mind stands out for its high per-student spending of $21,483, but its academic performance lags behind the district and state. Horace Mann High has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 91% and better-than-average ACT scores, while Exploration Charter High School excels in 10th grade social studies proficiency. However, the district as a whole struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.7% to 28.24%, and a wide range of free/reduced lunch recipients, from 28.24% to 53.03%.
The data suggests that the North Fond du Lac School District faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, equity, and resource allocation. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to identify and address the root causes of the district's struggles.
