Summary:
Three Lakes School District in Wisconsin has a single high school: Three Lakes High, serving grades 9–12 with 156 students. Because it is the only high school in the district, it is the only option for families in the area, and district-wide figures match the school's on nearly every measure.
Three Lakes High has climbed sharply in the state rankings. It placed 317th of 431 (26th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024, 188th of 431 (56th percentile, 3 stars) in 2024–2025, and 134th of 533 (75th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026 — a move from the bottom quartile to the top quartile. The district as a whole ranks 58th of 432, at the 87th percentile with 4 stars. Test results are strongest in math (57.14% proficient vs. 42.93% state), science (53.57% vs. 43.20%), and social studies (56.82% vs. 48.25% in 2025–2026; 59.26% vs. 47.67% in 2024–2025). English Language Arts is the exception, at 46.43% in 2025–2026 vs. 48.47% statewide, and 47.73% vs. 48.62% the prior year — the only subject below the state in both reported years.
Graduation and dropout outcomes are strong: a 95.1% graduation rate against the state's 92.0%, and a 0.6% dropout rate against the state's 1.1%. The main concern is chronic absenteeism at 21.6%, higher than the district's 15.5% and the state's 17.3% — more than one in five students. The school is small, with a 10.2:1 student-teacher ratio and $25,860 in per-student spending. Test data coverage differs by year: 2025–2026 includes social studies, ELA, math, and science, while 2024–2025 includes only social studies and ELA, which limits year-over-year comparisons.
