Summary:
The Lake Mills Area School District operates three schools - Lake Mills Elementary, Lake Mills High, and Lake Mills Middle - serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Overall, the district is ranked 97th out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and has a 4-star rating, indicating strong academic performance.
Lake Mills High School stands out as a top performer, ranked 68th out of 431 Wisconsin high schools with a 4-star rating. The school boasts an impressive 91% 4-year graduation rate, low 1.3% dropout rate, and strong test scores, with over 50% proficiency in ACT English, math, and science. Lake Mills Middle School also excels, ranking 173rd out of 628 Wisconsin middle schools with a 4-star rating, and demonstrating standout performance in 6th grade English Language Arts and math.
While the district's schools generally outperform state averages on standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts and social studies, there are some areas for improvement. Chronic absenteeism rates are high across all three schools, ranging from 17.7% to 17.7%, and free/reduced lunch rates are relatively high, from 22.4% at the elementary school to 30.33% at the middle school. The district may need to address these attendance and equity challenges to ensure all students are reaching their full potential.
