Summary

Fond du Lac High is a public high school located in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,928 students. The school is part of the Fond du Lac School District, which is ranked 263 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fond du Lac High has faced several challenges in recent years, including low statewide rankings, ranging from 178 to 376 out of 400-466 Wisconsin high schools, and a low SchoolDigger rating of mostly 1 or 2 stars out of 5. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Fond du Lac High consistently underperforming the state averages in areas like test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 40.63% to 46.65%, which may be contributing to the academic challenges.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Campbellsport High, Laconia High, and Oakfield High, Fond du Lac High generally performs worse, with lower test scores, graduation rates, and higher chronic absenteeism. Interestingly, the Fond du Lac STEM Academy, a public charter school within the same district, outperforms Fond du Lac High in several areas, suggesting that a STEM-focused curriculum and approach may be more effective for the district's students.
