Seymour Community School District

The Seymour Community School District in Wisconsin serves roughly 1,772 students across four schools — two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school — covering grades PK through 12. The district is ranked 293rd of 432 districts in the state, placing it in the 32nd percentile with 2 stars, a district-wide rating that describes the system as a whole rather than any one school.

Among the four schools, Seymour Middle is the standout: it is the only 3-star school in the district, ranks in the 59th percentile for 2025–2026, and has climbed steadily from the 51st percentile three years earlier. It scored above the state in 6 of 8 tests, including 7th grade math at 71.28% versus 55.67% statewide, and has the district's lowest student-teacher ratio at 10.9. Rock Ledge Elementary made the biggest jump, rising from the 29th to the 46th percentile, and posts the lowest chronic absenteeism at 11.1% — well below the 17.3% district and state rate — despite having the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 44.85%.

Seymour High shows a mixed picture: its graduation rate is 95.8% (state: 92.0%) and its dropout rate just 0.1% (state: 1.1%), but chronic absenteeism is the highest in the district at 24.9%, and it scored below the state in all four reported subjects, including math at 35.88% versus 42.93%. Black Creek Elementary has held steady near the 40th percentile with 2 stars, with results that vary widely by grade — 6th grade ELA at 82.35% versus 54.95% statewide, but 4th grade math at 19.35% versus 52.87%. Overall, the district's 2-star, 32nd-percentile standing reflects an above-state middle school alongside weaker high school test and attendance results.
