SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 533 Wisconsin High Schools

Better than 91% of Wisconsin high schools

Summary

Memorial High is a public grade 9–12 school serving 1,558 students in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, part of the Eau Claire Area School District. It ranks 49th of 533 Wisconsin high schools in 2025–2026 (91st percentile, 5 stars), while the district as a whole ranks 225th of 432 (48th percentile, 2 stars). Memorial has earned 4 or 5 stars every year since 2015–2016, with percentile ranks from 86 to 94 — a long-standing pattern, not a one-year spike.

Academically, Memorial leads every nearby high school in all four tested subjects. Its 2025–2026 10th-grade proficiency rates were 65.44% in social studies, 65.92% in English language arts, 59.62% in math, and 59.81% in science — all well above district and state averages. The closest comparison is North High, in the same district just 3.42 miles away with nearly identical enrollment (1,567); it trails in ELA (52.10%), math (50.16%), science (50.49%), and social studies (45.11%). Chippewa Falls High is similarly sized and has slightly better graduation and dropout figures, but much lower proficiency. Fall Creek High comes nearest in overall rank (87th percentile) yet is far smaller, and Altoona High, Elk Mound High, Augusta High, and Eleva-Strum High also score below Memorial.

Graduation is 93.8% and the dropout rate 0.6%, better than district (92.4%, 1.0%) and state (92.0%, 1.1%) figures. Students from low-income families rank in the 88th percentile (4 stars), and special education students improved to the 62nd percentile, while English learners rank in the 33rd percentile — a relative area of focus. The main concern is chronic absenteeism at 24.4%, above the district's 16.4% and the state's 17.3% but close to North's 27.2%. Memorial achieves this with mid-range spending ($14,414 per student) and the highest student-teacher ratio among nearby schools (17.7).
