Summary:
The Lake Holcombe School District contains a single high school, Holcombe High, which serves students in grades 9-12. The district is located in a rural area and the high school has a small student population of only 82 students.
Holcombe High is a low-performing school, ranked between 373 and 410 out of 390 to 431 Wisconsin high schools in recent years. The school is rated only 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. While the school has a slightly above-average four-year graduation rate of 91.0%, its test scores are significantly below the state averages in all subjects, with proficiency rates ranging from 17.65% to 35.29% compared to state averages of 42.73% to 47.67%. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is well above the state average.
Despite the district's higher-than-average spending of $17,558 per student, Holcombe High continues to struggle to provide a high-quality education to its students. Nearly half of the student population (46.34%) receives free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. These factors, combined with the school's consistently low rankings and poor academic performance, suggest that the Lake Holcombe School District faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes at Holcombe High.
