Summary

Kewaunee Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, with 188 students. The school faces several challenges, including below-average test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and performance gaps among student subgroups.

The school's performance also varies significantly by student subgroups, with the school performing relatively well for Hispanic students but struggling with English Language Learners.
