Tomah Area School District

Summary:

The Tomah Area School District in Wisconsin encompasses 12 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, serving students from prekindergarten through 12th grade.

The data reveals significant variation in academic performance across the district's schools. Tomah Area Montessori School, a public charter elementary school, consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests, with 100% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2024-2025. Similarly, Warrens Elementary and La Grange Elementary demonstrate strong academic achievement, with test scores often exceeding the district and state averages.

In contrast, some schools, such as Lemonweir Elementary and Wyeville Elementary, struggle to meet state performance standards. The district as a whole is ranked 351 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, suggesting the need for comprehensive improvement strategies to raise the performance of its underperforming schools and address systemic issues like the consistent 17.7% chronic absenteeism rate across all schools.
