Summary

Royall High is a small public school in Elroy, Wisconsin, serving about 201 students in grades 7–12 within the Royall School District, and it now sits near the top of its immediate regional peer group. In 2025–2026 it ranked 142 of 533 schools statewide — the 73rd percentile with 4 stars — up from the 46th percentile the year before and the 15th percentile in 2023–2024, and the highest percentile in the available history. That puts it second among nearby schools only to Brookwood High (77th percentile), and ahead of Mauston High (66th), New Lisbon Junior High/High and Hillsboro High (45th), Tomah High (38th), Weston Senior High School (36th), Wonewoc-Center High (25th), and Lemonweir Academy (10th).

High-school outcomes are the clearest strength. Graduation is 97.1% and the dropout rate is 0.5%, both better than state averages, and chronic absenteeism is just 7.7% compared with the state's 17.3% — far below Tomah High and Weston Senior High School (about 33% each), Lemonweir Academy (23.4%), and Wonewoc-Center High (21.3%). Tenth-grade ACT proficiency is 51.61% in ELA, math, and science, all above state rates, and 10th-grade social studies proficiency is 54.84%, above the state and most nearby schools. One gap to watch: students from low-income families rank lower as a group (31st percentile) than the school does overall.

The main opportunity is the middle grades. Seventh- and eighth-grade Forward Exam results are mostly below state, especially in ELA and 8th-grade social studies, while 8th-grade math and science are more competitive locally. Resources look supportive — $19,240 per student and a 9.7 student-teacher ratio — but Weston Senior High School spends more with a smaller ratio and ranks lower, so money alone doesn't explain the results. Because Royall High is small and its rank has swung widely year to year, the next one or two years will show whether this improvement holds.
