Summary:
Middle Schools located in the Arcadia School District in Wisconsin consist of a single school: Arcadia Middle in Arcadia, WI, which serves grades 5–8 with 359 students.
Arcadia Middle has notable strengths, especially in student engagement. Its chronic absenteeism rate is 4.7%, compared with 9.1% for the district and 17.3% for the state — less than one-third of the state rate — and its dropout rate is 0.0%, versus 0.3% district and 1.1% state. These are strong signals even though 76.32% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Academically, 8th graders in 2025–26 performed above the state in social studies (77.22% vs. 64.63%), English Language Arts (59.49% vs. 54.38%), and math (58.23% vs. 53.67%), and essentially matched the state in science (51.90% vs. 51.86%). 8th grade also improved substantially over the prior year across all four subjects. In 2024–25, 7th grade posted standout results: 85% in ELA versus 53.59% state, and 69.14% in math versus 55.53% state.
There are also clear areas of concern. In 2025–26, 5th- and 6th-grade ELA and math were well below state: ELA 5 at 28.38% vs. 53.63%, ELA 6 at 31.11% vs. 54.95%, math 5 at 35.14% vs. 51.81%, and math 6 at 27.78% vs. 53.60%. 7th-grade math fell sharply from 69.14% to 45.98%, now below the state's 55.67%, and 7th-grade ELA for 2025–26 is not listed in the data. In middle-school rankings, Arcadia Middle has held steady around the 39th–41st percentile with 2 stars (389th of 643 in 2025–26), while the district ranks 405th of 432, at the 6th percentile with 0 stars — different ranking systems, so not directly comparable. Per-student spending is $13,459 with a student-teacher ratio of 14.2; no district or state comparison is provided for these.
