West High

Summary:

West High is a public high school located in Madison, Wisconsin, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,147 students. It is part of the Madison Metropolitan School District, which is ranked 330 out of 428 school districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

West High has consistently been one of the top-performing high schools in Wisconsin over the past several years, ranking 51st out of 431 Wisconsin high schools and receiving a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year. The school outperforms the district and state in standardized test scores, with significantly higher proficiency rates in Social Studies, English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. West High's performance is particularly strong among certain student subgroups, such as White, Multi-racial, and Male students, who consistently rank among the top high schools in the state. However, the school's performance is less strong for some other subgroups, such as Hispanic students and Low Socio-Economic Status students.

While West High has maintained a high four-year graduation rate and a relatively low dropout rate, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 23.0% in the 2019-2020 school year to 32.1% in the 2022-2023 school year. When compared to other high schools in the Madison Metropolitan School District, such as LaFollette High and East High, West High generally outperforms its peers. However, Middleton High (in the Middleton-Cross Plains Area School District) also demonstrates strong academic performance and may serve as a useful benchmark for West High to aspire to.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
