High Schools in Wausau School District


Summary:

The Wausau School District in Wisconsin is home to three high schools: West High, East High, and Enrich Excel Achieve Learning Academy. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and offer a range of academic and extracurricular opportunities.

Among the three high schools, West High stands out as the strongest performer, with higher test scores and a higher school ranking compared to the district and state averages. East High has a more mixed performance, with some metrics above and some below the district and state averages. In contrast, Enrich Excel Achieve Learning Academy, despite its small size and higher per-student spending, has the lowest test scores and school ranking among the three.

The data also reveals some interesting findings about the schools. All three high schools have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be a contributing factor to their overall academic performance. Additionally, the higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Enrich Excel Achieve Learning Academy suggests a higher concentration of economically disadvantaged students, raising questions about the equity of educational opportunities and resources within the district.
