Summary

Menomonie Middle is a public middle school in Menomonie, Wisconsin, serving about 730 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Menomonie Area School District. In 2025–2026 it ranks 197th of 643 middle schools statewide — the 69th percentile with 3 stars — well above its district's 47th percentile (228th of 432), suggesting the middle school is a relative bright spot locally. In 2024–2025 it placed 177th of 628 (72nd percentile, 4 stars), so it stays in the top third of the state.

Academically, its strengths are math, science and social studies. Its 2025–2026 math average across grades 6–8 is 62.1%, well above the state's roughly 54.3%, and 8th-grade math is 67.60%. Eighth-grade social studies (76.80%) and science (65.60%) run 12.2 and 13.7 points above state. ELA is more mixed: 7th grade (62.92%) and 8th grade (55.60%) beat the state, while 6th grade (53.04%) sits just below it. Among neighbors, Spring Valley Middle, Elk Mound Middle and Elmwood Middle generally post higher ELA and math scores, while Menomonie outperforms DeLong Middle in math, science and social studies. The school has also improved since 2022–2023, when grades 6–8 ELA proficiency was in the mid-30s.

The clearest challenge is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 18.8% in 2024–2025, above the district (15.3%) and state (17.3%) and higher than every nearby school listed, including Boyceville Middle (3.2%), Elk Mound Middle (3.3%), Elmwood Middle (5.4%) and Spring Valley Middle (6.3%). Menomonie's free/reduced-lunch rate is 41.5%, and its per-student spending of $11,796 and 14.6 student/teacher ratio are leaner than several neighbors. Subgroup results are uneven: Hispanic students (81st percentile) and English Language Learner students (73rd percentile) rank high in 2025–2026, while multi-racial students have been at the 17th–21st percentile across three years, the most persistent gap.
