Summary

Eleva-Strum Middle in Strum, WI, is a small rural school serving 144 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Eleva-Strum School District. It ranks in the middle-lower tier of Wisconsin middle schools: 375th of 643 (42nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026, above its district’s 29th percentile but behind nearby Fall Creek Middle, Altoona Middle, South Middle, Northstar Middle, and DeLong Middle, and roughly similar to Mondovi Middle.

Test scores show a striking grade-level split. The 8th grade is a strength: in 2025–2026, it was above state in ELA, math, social studies, and science, with math at 65.79% proficient (state 53.67%) and social studies at 73.68% (state 64.63%). By contrast, 6th and 7th grades are below state in both ELA and math. Seventh-grade math is the biggest concern at 32.08% proficient (state 55.67%), the lowest among nearby middle schools, while 7th-grade ELA is 39.62% (state 55.33%). Sixth grade is also below state in ELA (47.5% vs. 54.95%) and math (45% vs. 53.6%).

Chronic absenteeism is a clear strength: 9.2% in 2024–2025, well below the state’s 17.3% and lower than most nearby schools, including higher-ranked ones. The school spends $11,982 per student—the lowest or near-lowest in the local group—and has the highest student–teacher ratio (14.7), yet still ranks ahead of Augusta Middle, Independence Middle, and Osseo-Fairchild Middle. Low-income students rank above the school overall (59th percentile in 2025–2026), a positive sign. Because enrollment is only 144, one-year results and small-group rankings can swing widely, so attendance, 8th-grade performance, and current 6th/7th-grade academic needs are the most reliable takeaways.
