Summary:
The Cumberland School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Cumberland Middle, which serves grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 261 students. While the school's performance on standardized tests has been mixed compared to state averages, it faces some challenges in maintaining consistent academic achievement and addressing issues like chronic absenteeism.
Cumberland Middle's proficiency rates on the Forward Exam have fluctuated, with some grades and subjects performing above the state average and others below. The school's 1.3% dropout rate and 17.7% chronic absenteeism rate for the 2023-2024 school year are areas of concern. Despite higher per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio than the state average, Cumberland Middle is ranked 396 out of 628 Wisconsin middle schools for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Without additional middle schools in the Cumberland School District to compare to, it's difficult to assess how Cumberland Middle is performing relative to its peers. However, the data suggests the school may be facing demographic and resource challenges that are impacting its overall academic performance and student outcomes. Addressing attendance issues and effectively utilizing the school's resources could be key focus areas for improvement.
