Summary:
The Palmyra-Eagle Area School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Palmyra-Eagle Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past few years, ranging from 167th out of 641 Wisconsin middle schools in 2023-2024 to 285th out of 640 in 2022-2023.
Palmyra-Eagle Middle's performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized test, has been mixed. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) for grades 6-8, but below the state average in Mathematics for grades 6 and 8. In 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates were above the state average in ELA for grades 7-8 and Mathematics for grades 7-8, but below the state average in ELA for grade 6 and Mathematics for grade 6. However, the school's proficiency rates in Social Studies and Science for 8th grade were above the state average in both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025.
Despite its small student population of 99 students, Palmyra-Eagle Middle has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.9 and higher per-student spending of $14,111 for the 2020-2021 school year, both of which are better than the state averages. These factors suggest a focus on providing a more personalized and resource-intensive educational experience for its students, though the impact on student outcomes would require further investigation.
