Summary:
The Barron Area School District in Wisconsin has one middle school, Riverview Middle, which serves grades 6-8. Based on the available data, Riverview Middle does not appear to be a standout performer within the district or the state, consistently ranking in the bottom half of Wisconsin middle schools over the past few years.
Riverview Middle's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally below the district and state averages, with some exceptions in 5th and 7th-grade math. The school's proficiency rates in Social Studies and Science for 8th grade are also below the state averages. Additionally, Riverview Middle has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% for the 2023-2024 school year, which may be impacting the school's overall academic outcomes.
Despite the school's higher spending per student of $14,215 for the 2020-2021 school year, which is above the state average, Riverview Middle's academic performance remains below the state average. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be influencing the school's performance. The high percentage of students (61.41%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Riverview Middle may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic achievement compared to the state averages.
