Albany School District

The Albany School District in Wisconsin consists of three schools: Albany Elementary, Albany High, and Albany Community Middle. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in the Albany area.

Albany Community Middle stands out as a top performer, with significantly higher proficiency rates than the district and state averages in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science. The school's statewide ranking also improved from 438 out of 640 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 303 out of 628 in 2024-2025, earning it a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, while Albany High maintained a 3-star rating in 2023-2024, its statewide ranking declined from 206 out of 415 in 2022-2023 to 377 out of 431 in 2024-2025, which warrants further investigation.

Across the district, the schools have relatively low enrollment, ranging from 58 students at Albany Community Middle to 151 students at Albany Elementary. The district also faces a challenge with high chronic absenteeism rates of 17.7% across all three schools, which is higher than the state average. However, the schools have relatively low free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting they may not have a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which could contribute to their academic performance.
