Summary:

The Sheboygan Area School District includes 24 schools—14 elementary, 5 middle, and 5 high—serving 8,762 students in the Sheboygan, Wisconsin area, and ranks 343 of 432 in Wisconsin (21st percentile, 1 star overall). That district rating masks wide school-level variation, with some schools near the top of their level and others near the bottom. Data cover SchoolDigger rank, test proficiency, graduation and dropout rates, chronic absenteeism, free/reduced lunch, per-student spending, and student-teacher ratios.

Positive standouts include Etude High, the highest-ranked high school (67/533, 87th percentile, 4 stars), with 10th grade proficiency of 66.67% in ACT ELA, 60% in ACT Math, 66.67% in ACT Science, and 45.45% in Forward Social Studies. Lincoln-Erdman Elementary (284/1,039, 73rd percentile, 4 stars) has 4.8% chronic absenteeism and 4th grade math at 78.18%, social studies at 80%, and science at 74.55%. Etude Elementary also ranks 73rd percentile with 4 stars and high 3rd/5th grade ELA and math plus 4th grade science at 68.42%, despite the second-lowest per-student spending at $11,486. Lake Country Academy - Charter has the lowest free/reduced lunch rate at 37.58%, and Jackson Elementary has a 10.0 student-teacher ratio. Among comprehensive high schools, North High is at the 50th percentile, beats the district in all 2025-2026 subjects, and exceeds the state math figure of 42.93%.

Schools needing attention include Central High, the clearest negative outlier (521/533, 2nd percentile, 0 stars) with a 70.6% graduation rate, 11.0% dropout rate, 76.3% chronic absenteeism, and 2025-2026 proficiency of 0% in 10th grade social studies. Longfellow Elementary has the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 94.02% and highest per-student spending at $19,782 but ranks in the 13th percentile, with 4th grade math at 18.92%. Jefferson Elementary (11th percentile) and Sheridan Elementary (12th percentile) also post low proficiency and high poverty, while Farnsworth Middle is the lowest-ranked middle school at the 20th percentile. South High ranks in the 21st percentile with 34.5% chronic absenteeism. High poverty is a strong but not deterministic factor, spending does not track directly with achievement, chronic absenteeism is a major red flag, and middle school performance is a district-wide weak spot.
