Summary:

The Waukesha School District in Wisconsin is home to three middle schools: Butler Middle, Les Paul Middle, and Horning Middle. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.

Among the three middle schools, Les Paul Middle stands out as the top performer. It holds a 4-star rating and ranks 135th out of 628 Wisconsin middle schools, outperforming the district and state averages on standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, Les Paul Middle has the lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients and the lowest student-teacher ratio, suggesting a more favorable learning environment.

In contrast, Horning Middle consistently underperforms the district and state averages, particularly in Mathematics and Science. This performance gap between the schools may be influenced by socioeconomic factors, as Horning Middle has a higher percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients compared to Les Paul Middle. The district-wide high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% also suggests an area for improvement across all three middle schools.
