Summary:
West De Pere School District is a K–12 district in Wisconsin with six schools in this data set — two elementary, two middle, and two high — serving 3,624 students. The district ranks 66th of 432 districts statewide (85th percentile, 4 stars), a strong overall position, but school-level results vary considerably beneath that average.
Hemlock Creek Elementary is the academic flagship: ranked 86th of 1,039 elementary schools, 92nd percentile, 5 stars for three straight years, with the strongest test-score profile in the district (about 76.9% simple average) and the lowest chronic absenteeism (3.1%) and FRL rate (13.75%). West De Pere High is also strong — 90th percentile, 4 stars, a 96.4% graduation rate, 0.1% dropout, and ACT Math proficiency of 68.05% against the state's 42.93%. West De Pere Intermediate School (grades 5–6) has no rank listed, but posts the district's lowest chronic absenteeism at 3.0% and above-state ELA and Math scores in both grades.
Two schools warrant attention. West De Pere Middle slipped from 4 stars (75th percentile) to 3 stars (65th percentile), with 8th grade scores declining in ELA, Math, Social Studies, and Science, and chronic absenteeism at 6.4%, above the district's 4.7%. Westwood Elementary (79th percentile, 4 stars) is above state in every listed test but below district averages, with higher FRL and absenteeism. Phantom Knight School of Opportunity, with only 22 students, is a major outlier: 66.6% graduation, 4.3% dropout, and 34.8% chronic absenteeism. Attendance overall is a district strength, at 4.7% chronic absenteeism versus the state's 17.3%.
