Summary:
The Kaukauna Area School District has just one high school in this data set: Kaukauna High, serving grades 9–12 at 1701 County Road CE in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, with 1,210 students. Because it is the only high school in the district, it represents the entire high-school picture for the area, and its graduation and test-proficiency results are identical at the school and district levels. The record covers three years of rankings (2023–24 through 2025–26), plus 2024–25 graduation, dropout, absenteeism, spending, and lunch-program data, and test scores for both 2024–25 and 2025–26.
Academically, Kaukauna High is strongest in math, where 55.48% of 10th graders were proficient in 2025–26 against 42.93% statewide — a gap of more than 12 percentage points, and essentially unchanged from 55.67% the year before. Social studies posted the biggest single-year gain, climbing from 47.50% to 60.59%, moving the school from slightly below the state average to 12.34 points above it. Science held steady at 47.70%, about 4.50 points above the state. English language arts remains above the state at 50.53% versus 48.47%, though it slipped from 52.48%, narrowing its relative edge.
Engagement measures are largely favorable: a 95.8% graduation rate versus 92.0% statewide, a 0.5% dropout rate versus 1.1%, and chronic absenteeism of 13.9% versus 17.3% statewide — though that is 3.1 points above the district's 10.8%. The school's standing is improving, moving from 153rd of 431 schools to 129th of 533, with its percentile rising from 65 to 76 and stars from 3 to 4, even against a larger comparison group. Additional context: 21.74% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $13,708, and the student-teacher ratio is 16.1:1.
