Summary:
Hudson School District in Wisconsin has just one middle school serving grades 6–8: Hudson Middle, located at 1300 Carmichael Rd in Hudson, with 1,089 students. Because it is the only middle school in the Hudson School District, there is no in-district comparison to make — the most useful benchmarks are Wisconsin state averages and the school's own performance over time.
By state standards, Hudson Middle stands out. It ranked 53rd of 643 Wisconsin middle schools in 2025–2026, placing in the 92nd percentile with 5 stars. That is a large jump from 163rd of 641 in 2023–2024 (75th percentile, 4 stars) and 87th of 628 in 2024–2025 (86th percentile, 4 stars) — a 110-position gain in two years, with the star rating rising from 4 to 5. Proficiency is above the state in every subject and grade tested. Eighth grade Social Studies is the strongest single score at 87.81% proficient, 23.18 points above the state, and it posted the biggest one-year gain (+10.51 points). Math averages 77.49% across grades 6–8, about 23 points above the state average, with 7th grade highest at 78.53%. ELA scores range from 69.71% to 72.81%, roughly 14–18 points above state, while Science improved from 58.05% to 67.50% (+9.45 points) but remains the lowest subject.
School climate measures are favorable too: chronic absenteeism is 10.5%, lower than the district's 11.9% and the state's 17.3%, and the dropout rate is 0.0% versus 1.1% statewide. Free/reduced lunch is 12.03%, per-student spending is $15,511, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.7 — contextual factors that do not by themselves establish cause and effect. Two scores slipped slightly year over year: 8th grade ELA (−1.04 points) and 8th grade math (−1.28 points), both still far above state averages. Those are worth monitoring, though the broad trajectory remains upward.
