Summary:

The Oshkosh Area School District serves about 8,579 students across 17 schools in Oshkosh, Wisconsin — 11 elementary, 4 middle, and 2 high schools — and is ranked 335th of 432 Wisconsin districts (22nd percentile, 1 star), a district-wide figure that hides wide differences between individual buildings.

Only four schools rank above the 50th percentile: Traeger Middle (93rd percentile, 5 stars), Oakwood Elementary (91st, 5 stars), Traeger Elementary (77th, 4 stars), and West High (65th, 3 stars). These schools combine low chronic absenteeism (2.9% at Oakwood, 7.2% at Traeger Middle) with low free/reduced lunch rates and strong proficiency — Traeger Middle's social studies is 87.01%, and Oakwood's 5th-grade math is 88.71%. At the other end, Vel Phillips Middle School (21st percentile), Read Elementary School (13th), Roosevelt Elementary School (15th), and North High (16th) post the district's highest absenteeism and poverty alongside low test scores.

Notably, higher spending and smaller classes do not guarantee results: Menominee Elementary School has the highest per-student spending ($18,935) and ranks in the bottom fifth, while Oakwood spends the least ($13,245) and ranks in the top 10%. Chronic absenteeism tracks closely with performance, from Oakwood's 2.9% to Vel Phillips's 30.2%. Some schools are also slipping — Lakeside Elementary School fell from the 68th percentile to 31st, and South Park Middle declined from 50th to 30th — making attendance and targeted support the district's clearest opportunities.
