Summary:
The Marinette School District in Wisconsin serves students from four schools: two elementary schools (Marinette Intermediate and Marinette Primary), one middle school (Marinette Middle), and one high school (Marinette High). Overall, the district appears to be struggling, with all schools performing significantly below the state average on key metrics like test scores and graduation rates.
The data shows that students at Marinette High School perform well below the state average in all subject areas tested, with proficiency rates ranging from 27-31% compared to the state average of 42-48%. Similarly, Marinette Middle School students also lag behind the state average in English Language Arts (31-43% vs. 51-54%) and Mathematics (27-41% vs. 53-56%). Even the elementary schools, Marinette Intermediate and Marinette Primary, have proficiency rates in the 40-50% range, which is still below the state averages of 52-56% in English Language Arts and 54-56% in Mathematics.
Additionally, the Marinette School District faces other challenges, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% across all schools, significantly higher than the state average. The district also serves a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 50.93% at Marinette High to 59.54% at Marinette Intermediate. Addressing these issues will be crucial for the district to improve student outcomes and close the performance gap with the state averages.
