New London School District

The New London School District in Wisconsin serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 public charter high school. The district's schools demonstrate a mix of high-performing and lower-performing institutions, with several standout schools and areas for improvement.

Parkview Elementary and Readfield Elementary consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state, with strong test scores, particularly in math and science, and relatively low percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Sugar Bush Elementary appears to be the lowest-performing school in the district, with lower test scores and a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

The district's flagship high school, New London High, ranks among the top 20% of Wisconsin high schools, with high graduation rates, low dropout rates, and solid test scores, particularly in English language arts and social studies. The public charter high school, Catalyst Academy, stands out with its small size, high spending per student, and high percentage of free/reduced lunch students, suggesting it may be serving a specific population with specialized needs. Across the district, chronic absenteeism is a concern, with all schools reporting rates around 17.7%, which warrants further investigation and targeted interventions.
