Summary:
There is one high school in the Wabeno Area School District: Wabeno High, a small grades 6–12 campus in Wabeno, Wisconsin, serving 193 students. Because it is the district’s only high school, school and district results often match. The district is ranked 399 of 432 (8th percentile, 0 stars). The school’s rank was 440 of 533 (17th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–26, 310 of 431 (28th percentile, 1 star) in 2024–25, and 384 of 431 (11th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–24.
In 2025–26, Wabeno High had only 2 of 12 school-vs-state test comparisons above state: 6th Grade ELA (59.09% vs. 54.95%) and 6th Grade Math (54.55% vs. 53.60%). 8th Grade Social Studies was a relative strength at 59.26%, up from 53.13%, though still below the state’s 64.63%. ACT ELA was above state in 2024–25 at 54.55% vs. 48.62%, but fell to 23.81% vs. 48.47% in 2025–26. Other results lagged: 8th Grade ELA was 22.22% vs. 54.38%, 10th Grade Social Studies was 16.67% vs. 48.25%, and 7th Grade ELA and Math were both 32.26%.
Completion and engagement data show similar concerns: graduation rate is 86.2% vs. 92.0% statewide, dropout rate is 3.3% vs. 1.1%, and chronic absenteeism is 20.3% vs. 17.3%. About 61.66% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $11,425, and the student-teacher ratio is 11.5. With only 193 students in grades 6–12, small cohorts can cause big year-to-year swings. Families should see Wabeno High as a small, high-poverty school with real bright spots—especially 6th grade ELA/math and 8th grade social studies—but many results remain below Wisconsin averages.
