Summary:
Oostburg School District in Wisconsin is served by a single middle school: Oostburg Middle, which enrolls 204 students in grades 6 through 8 at 408 New York Ave in Oostburg. Because it is the district's only middle school, its test scores and the district's middle-grade scores are one and the same, so there is no in-district peer school to compare it with — the state is the only meaningful benchmark available.
The results are exceptional. Oostburg Middle ranks #13 of 643 Wisconsin middle schools, placing it in the 98th percentile with a 5-star rating, and it has earned 5 stars in all three years on record (94th, 99th, and 98th percentile). Proficiency rates sit 20 to 39 points above the state in every subject and grade tested, roughly 1.5 times the state rate. Chronic absenteeism is 2.4%, less than one-seventh of the state's 17.3% and lower than the district's 3.4%, and the dropout rate is 0.0% against a 1.1% state rate.
Two soft spots are worth watching. Seventh-grade math fell from 85.71% to 78.87%, now the lowest cell in the current data, and eighth-grade science rose from 72.58% to 78.57% but remains the school's weakest subject. With roughly 65 to 70 students per grade, a few students can move these numbers, so one year's dip may be cohort noise rather than a trend. English/language arts has been steady, with every cell between 81.43% and 87.14%. About one in six students (16.67%) qualifies for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $12,871, and the student–teacher ratio is 13.6 to 1.
