Summary

Auburndale High is a public school in Auburndale, WI, serving about 400 students in grades 6–12 as part of the Auburndale School District. In 2025–26, the school ranked 399th of 533 Wisconsin high schools (25th percentile, 1 star), while its district ranked 186th of 432 districts (57th percentile, 3 stars). That school-versus-district gap is notable: the district is above the state median, but the high school is in the bottom quartile. The school’s rank history shows a long decline from 71st percentile and 4 stars in 2016–17 to 10th percentile and 1 star in 2024–25, with a slight uptick to 25th percentile and 1 star in 2025–26.

Parents will see real strengths. Grades 6–8 Forward Exam results are often above state averages, especially 6th- and 8th-grade math, 8th-grade science, and 8th-grade social studies; 7th-grade math is the main middle-school weak spot. Completion and attendance are also strong: the 2024–25 graduation rate was 98.1% vs. the state’s 92.0%, the dropout rate was 0.0% vs. 1.1%, and chronic absenteeism was 8.8% vs. 17.3%. Among nearby schools, graduation is near the top, dropout is zero, and absenteeism is better than Mosinee High, Pittsville High, and Spencer Junior High/High. Resources are favorable too: per-student spending is $16,229, and the student-teacher ratio is 12.6.

The main concern is high-school academic proficiency. In 2025–26, Social Studies 10, ACT ELA 10, ACT Math 10, and ACT Science 10 were all below state averages and at the bottom of the nearby group, behind Stratford High, Mosinee High, Marshfield High, and Pittsville High; Spencer Junior High/High has similar high-school weaknesses, though Auburndale’s middle school results are generally stronger. Subgroup results also warrant attention: low-SES students went from 95th percentile and 5 stars in 2023–24 to 7th percentile and 0 stars in 2025–26. Recent middle-school and ACT gains are encouraging, but the high-school achievement gap remains the central issue.
