Kewaunee School District has one high school, Kewaunee High, serving grades 9–12 in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, with 284 students. The district is ranked 246 of 432 in Wisconsin, at the 43rd percentile with 2 stars, while Kewaunee High’s 2025–2026 rank is 274 of 533, at the 49th percentile with 2 stars.
Academically, math is the clearest strength: Kewaunee High was 7.07 points above the state in 2025–2026 math and 20.91 points above in 2024–2025. English Language Arts is the biggest concern. It was near the state in 2024–2025 at 48.48%, then fell to 34.38% in 2025–2026, compared with 48.47% statewide. Social Studies improved dramatically, from 30.65% in 2024–2025 to 54.1% in 2025–2026, but that 23.45-point swing may reflect cohort differences. Science slipped from 43.94% to 37.5%, moving from slightly above to below the state.
Outcomes are mixed. The graduation rate is 91.5%, close to the state’s 92.0% and district’s 91.6%. The dropout rate is 0.3%, well below the state’s 1.1%. Chronic absenteeism is 16.3%, better than the state’s 17.3% but higher than the district’s 9.5%. The school’s rank history has been unstable: 1 star in 2023–2024, 3 stars in 2024–2025, and 2 stars in 2025–2026. About 33.1% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $17,253, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.2. Bottom line: Kewaunee High is a middle-ranked school with strong math and low dropout, but ELA, science, and local absenteeism are areas to watch.
