Summary:
The Spooner Area School District has just one high school in this data: Spooner High, which serves grades 9–12 with an enrollment of 361 students at 801 County Highway A in Spooner, Wisconsin. Because it is the district's only high school, its test and graduation figures are identical to the district's, so Spooner High tells the entire high-school story for this area.
Graduation is a clear strength: 95.1% of students graduate, above Wisconsin's 92.0%. Social studies proficiency is the strongest subject at 54.29% in 2025–2026, above the state's 48.25% and up from 51.81% the year before. Science also improved, rising from 39.02% to 43.04%, nearly matching the state's 43.20%. The school's relative standing improved as well: in 2025–2026 it ranked 259 of 533, placing in the 51st percentile with 3 stars, up from the 46th percentile and 2 stars the prior year, even though the comparison pool grew from 431 to 533 schools.
There are watchpoints. Chronic absenteeism is 22.9%, well above the district's 16.0% and the state's 17.3%, making it the school's biggest red flag. The dropout rate is 1.7%, slightly above the district's 1.4% and the state's 1.1%. Recent ACT proficiency in English language arts and math declined and now trails the state: ELA fell from 48.78% to 41.77% (state 48.47%), and math fell from 45.12% to 40.51% (state 42.93%). Context figures include 41.27% free/reduced lunch, $14,481 per-student spending, and a 14.3 student-teacher ratio, though no district or state comparisons are available for these.
