Summary:
The Shullsburg School District in Wisconsin operates three schools: Shullsburg Elementary, Shullsburg High, and Shullsburg Junior High. The district serves a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, particularly at Shullsburg Elementary.
Shullsburg High School stands out as the strongest performer in the district, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and a 91.0% four-year graduation rate. The school also performs relatively well on ACT tests, with 56.52% proficiency in Math and 47.83% in Science for 10th graders. In contrast, Shullsburg Elementary and Shullsburg Junior High struggle to meet state benchmarks, with several grades and subjects falling well below the state averages on the Forward Exam.
Across the district, high chronic absenteeism rates of 17.7% in 2023-2024 suggest that student engagement and attendance may be an area of concern. The district's inconsistent academic performance and the need for targeted interventions to address these challenges will be crucial for ensuring that all students in the Shullsburg School District receive a high-quality education.
