Summary:
Bangor School District in Wisconsin contains just one high school, Bangor Middle/High, which serves grades 6–12 with 352 students, meaning middle school Forward Exam results and high school ACT results all sit within a single school. The district ranks 212 of 432 in Wisconsin (51st percentile, 3 stars). Because this is the only school serving those tested grades, the district's test scores are identical to the school's rather than an independent benchmark. Context figures for 2024–2025 include 31.53% free/reduced lunch, $15,544 per-student spending, and a 12.4 student-teacher ratio.
Academically, the school is on an upswing: 9 of 12 assessments in 2025–2026 were above the state proficiency rate, up from 5 of 12 the year before. Strengths include 8th grade Math (67.57% vs. state 53.67%), Social Studies at both 8th grade (72.97% vs. 64.63%) and 10th grade (62.00% vs. 48.25%), ACT Science (53.19% vs. 43.20%) and ACT ELA (53.19% vs. 48.47%). The remaining gaps are 6th grade ELA (47.06% vs. 54.95%), 7th grade ELA (52.38% vs. 55.33%), and ACT Math (36.17% vs. 42.93%). Note that much of the dramatic 8th grade gain reflects a different, stronger cohort moving up; with roughly 50 students per grade, a few students can shift percentages noticeably, so single-year swings should be read cautiously.
Accountability results are strong. The school rose from 346 of 431 (20th percentile, 1 star) in 2024–2025 to 166 of 533 (69th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026. Its 93.6% graduation rate beats the state's 92.0%, and its 0.0% dropout rate beats the state's 1.1%. Chronic absenteeism is 11.3% — well below the state's 17.3%, though above the district's 9.1%, making attendance the main area to monitor.
