Summary:
The Granton Area School District in Wisconsin is home to a single high school, Granton High, which serves students in grades 9-12. The data reveals that Granton High has faced some challenges in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating and its academic performance generally falling below state averages in various subject areas and assessments.
Granton High's four-year graduation rate of 81.8% is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 3.2% is higher. The school also struggles with a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.3%, which is significantly higher than the state average. While the school has a relatively small student population of 107 and a low student-to-teacher ratio of 7.9, its per-student spending of $17,718 is higher than the state average, suggesting that factors beyond just funding and class size may be influencing student outcomes.
Despite the school's higher spending and smaller class sizes, its academic performance remains a concern, with proficiency rates ranging from 27.27% in ACT Mathematics to 62.5% in Forward Exam Social Studies for 8th grade. The school's overall statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 290 out of 410 schools in 2017-2018 to 305 out of 431 schools in 2023-2024, indicating that the school's performance may be struggling compared to other schools in the state. Addressing these challenges will likely require a multi-faceted approach, including targeted interventions, resource allocation, and collaboration with the broader community.
