Summary:
Kohler School District, in Kohler, Wisconsin, has just one middle school serving grades 6–8: Kohler Middle, a small school of 168 students at 333 Upper Rd, Kohler, WI 53044. Because it is the only middle school in the district, there are no in-district peers to compare it with — the district's middle-grade results in this data come entirely from this school.
Kohler Middle is consistently elite statewide. It ranked 7th of 643 Wisconsin middle schools in 2025–26 (99th percentile, 5 stars), 27th of 628 in 2024–25 (96th percentile, 5 stars), and 9th of 641 in 2023–24 (99th percentile, 5 stars). Its district, Kohler School District, ranks 8th of 432 districts at the 98th percentile with 5 stars. In 2025–26, every reported Forward Exam proficiency rate was above 81%, while the highest corresponding state rate was 64.63% in 8th-grade Social Studies. The smallest gap over the state was +25.69 points (7th-grade Math), and the largest was +41.12 points (8th-grade Science). Sixth-grade Math jumped from 64.29% to 83.33%, and 8th-grade Science rose from 74.55% to 92.98%. A few grade-level results did slip — ELA 7 from 91.23% to 81.36% and Math 7 from 89.29% to 81.36% — but each stayed more than 25 points above the state average.
Engagement measures are strong: chronic absenteeism was 2.4% versus 3.1% districtwide and 17.3% statewide, and the dropout rate was 0.0% against 1.1% statewide. Per-student spending was $11,990 with a student-teacher ratio of 16, though the data offers no state comparison for those figures. Free/reduced-lunch information is unavailable, so socioeconomic context cannot be assessed, and with only 168 students, small cohorts can move percentages noticeably. Year-over-year changes also compare different grade-level cohorts rather than the same students.
