Evansville Community School District

Evansville Community School District serves about 1,622 students across four schools — two elementary, one middle and one high school — and is ranked 217 of 432 districts in Wisconsin, placing it at the 50th percentile with 3 stars. That district-wide figure sits squarely in the middle of the state, but it masks real differences between the individual schools. Evansville High is the largest with 497 students in grades 9–12, followed by Levi Leonard Elementary with 424 in PK–2, J C McKenna Middle with 362 in grades 6–8, and Theodore Robinson Intermediate School with 339 in grades 3–5.

J C McKenna Middle has the strongest overall academic profile in the district, ranking 247 of 643 schools at the 62nd percentile with 3 stars, and posting 7th grade math at 68.29% proficient versus 55.67% statewide. Theodore Robinson Intermediate School claims the single highest result in the data, with 4th grade social studies at 79.13% proficient versus 65.51% state, about 13.6 points above. Evansville High posts a 96.4% graduation rate against the state's 92.0%, a 0.6% dropout rate, and 10th grade ACT ELA at 59.13% versus 48.47% state.

Each school has clear watch points as well. Evansville High scored 34.86% in 10th grade social studies versus 48.25% state, about 13.4 points below, and has the district's highest chronic absenteeism at 17.4%. Theodore Robinson Intermediate School has the district's highest free/reduced lunch rate (26.55%) and lowest per-student spending ($13,854), and its latest rank fell to 537 of 1,039, the 48th percentile with 2 stars, down from 3 stars, despite several math and ELA results below state. Levi Leonard Elementary has no state test or rank data because it serves PK–2, but its chronic absenteeism of 11.9% is below both district and state.
