Summary:
The Valders Area School District in Wisconsin has only one middle school, Valders Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. The data provided offers insights into the school's performance, demographics, and other key metrics over the past few years.
Valders Middle's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 229th out of 628 Wisconsin middle schools in 2024-2025 to 370th out of 640 in 2022-2023. The school's performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized test, has been mixed, with the school outperforming the state average in some subject areas and grade levels, while underperforming in others. The school has a 25.95% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families, and a student-teacher ratio of 12.2, which is slightly lower than the state average.
Valders Middle had a 1.3% dropout rate for the 2023-2024 school year, which is relatively low, but a 17.7% chronic absenteeism rate for the same school year, which is higher than the state average. For the 2020-2021 school year, the school spent $11,893 per student, slightly higher than the state average. These insights suggest that while Valders Middle has some areas of strength, it also faces challenges related to student attendance and academic performance that may require further investigation and targeted interventions.
