Summary

Belleville Middle is a small public school serving roughly 111 students in grades 7–8 in Belleville, Wisconsin, and it is the only school in the Belleville School District for those grades. It is coming off its strongest year in a decade: 43rd of 643 Wisconsin middle schools in 2025–26 (93rd percentile, 5 stars), up from the 56th percentile in 2020–21. Because there are only about 55 students per grade, small year-to-year shifts can look bigger than they really are — but the multi-year climb is clear.

Test results are strong in every subject. In 2025–26, 7th-grade math proficiency was 81.36% and 8th-grade math 86%, both more than 25 points above the state. English language arts was 66.1% in 7th grade and 80% in 8th, social studies 86%, and science 70% — all above state averages. Math is the standout: 7th-grade proficiency has roughly doubled in three years, and each group of students gains sharply in math between 7th and 8th grade. Eighth graders here outperform nearby larger schools in ELA and math, including Oregon Middle, Savanna Oaks Middle, Badger Ridge Middle, Toki Middle, and Cherokee Heights Middle. The closest match is New Glarus Middle, about six miles away and also in the top 5% of the state; the two trade results, with New Glarus ahead in 7th-grade ELA and 8th-grade science and Belleville ahead in both math grades, 8th-grade ELA, and social studies.

Attendance and cost are notable too. Chronic absenteeism has been cut roughly in half, from 14.9% (2022–23) to 9.0% (2024–25) — below the district's 9.7% and about half the state's 17.3% — and the dropout rate is effectively zero. Students from low-income families rank in the 95th percentile statewide, and the school spends $16,369 per student, less than most Madison-area neighbors, with an 8.6-to-1 student-teacher ratio. Two areas are worth watching: 7th-grade ELA and science, which slipped from 75% to 70%, along with the wide swings in special-education results.
