Summary:
Cuba City School District is a three-school district in Wisconsin serving roughly 679 students from prekindergarten through 12th grade: Cuba City Elementary (PK–5, 288 students), Cuba City Middle (6–8, 129 students) and Cuba City High (9–12, 262 students). As a whole, the district ranks 149 of 432 in the state, at the 66th percentile with 3 stars. For context, Wisconsin's chronic absenteeism rate is 17.3%, dropout rate 1.1%, and high school graduation rate 92.0%.
Cuba City High is the district's clear standout — 39 of 533 Wisconsin high schools, 93rd percentile and 5 stars, up from the 75th percentile in 2023–2024. It graduates 100.0% of students with a 0.0% dropout rate, and its ACT results far exceed state averages: math 73.13% vs. 42.93%, science 70.15% vs. 43.20%, social studies 61.70% vs. 48.25%, and ELA 59.70% vs. 48.47%. Cuba City Middle spent two years at the 81st percentile and 4 stars before slipping to the 58th percentile and 3 stars in 2025–2026; 8th grade social studies (78.26% vs. 64.63%) and 7th/8th grade ELA remained above state, while 6th grade ELA (41.46% vs. 54.95%) and math (46.34% vs. 53.60%) fell below. Cuba City Elementary holds 2 stars but has climbed gradually to the 48th percentile, with strong social studies and ELA but uneven math — 3rd grade math 63.89% vs. 54.75%, but 4th grade math 28.13% vs. 52.87%.
Across all three schools, attendance and completion indicators are strengths: chronic absenteeism ranges from 7.6% to 8.8%, roughly half the state rate, and dropout is 0.0% at every school. Free/reduced lunch is highest at the elementary school (30.9%) and lowest at the high school (22.9%); spending is highest at the elementary school ($15,209) and lowest at the middle school ($14,232); student-teacher ratios are similar, from 11.4 to 12.4. Because these are small schools, year-to-year score swings are common, so families should weigh multi-year trends alongside the latest results.
