Alma High has experienced significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 21 out of 466 Wisconsin high schools in 2014-2015 to a low of 362 out of 431 in 2024-2025. This volatility suggests inconsistent performance compared to other high schools in the state. The school's performance for specific student groups, such as female, male, and low socioeconomic status students, has also been inconsistent, with rankings ranging from 277 to 312 out of Wisconsin high schools in 2024-2025. While Alma High has generally maintained high four-year graduation rates, its dropout rates have fluctuated, indicating room for improvement in student retention.
Alma High's test scores, as measured by the Forward Exam and ACT, have been mixed compared to the state and district averages. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in social studies (33.33%), English language arts (45%), and mathematics (30%) were all lower than the state averages. Additionally, Alma High has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 42.03% to 44.62% in recent years. This suggests the school serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, which may present additional challenges in supporting their academic and social-emotional needs. While Alma High's performance is mixed compared to the state, it is generally on par with or slightly better than the nearby Mondovi High, Durand Middle/High, and Gilmanton High in terms of graduation rates, test scores, and other key metrics.
