Summary:
Prentice, Wisconsin is home to a single middle school, Prentice Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has some positive metrics, such as a low student-teacher ratio and relatively high test scores in certain subjects, it also faces challenges that impact its overall performance compared to the state average.
Prentice Middle School's academic performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized test, is mixed. The school exceeds the state average in some subjects and grade levels, but falls behind in others, particularly in English Language Arts. Its statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 188th out of 640 Wisconsin middle schools in 2022-2023 to 288th out of 628 in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is relatively high compared to the state average.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance is not consistently strong compared to the state average. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Prentice School District to address the identified challenges and build on the school's positive attributes to enhance educational outcomes for its students.
