Summary

New London High is a public school in New London, Wisconsin, serving roughly 660 students in grades 9–12 as part of the New London School District. It stands out because it performs far better than its district overall: New London High ranked 80th of 533 Wisconsin high schools in 2025–2026 (85th percentile, 4 stars) and 34th of 431 in 2023–2024 (92nd percentile, 5 stars), while the district is ranked 238th of 432 (45th percentile, 2 stars). The struggles of another school in the same district, the small Catalyst Academy, help explain why the district rating sits so much lower than the high school's own.

Academically, New London High is above both district and state averages in every subject. In 2025–2026, 61.59% of 10th graders were proficient in Social Studies (state: 48.25%), 56.62% in English Language Arts, 55.15% in Math, and 55.88% in Science — all well above state figures. Compared with nearby schools, it outperforms Waupaca High, West High, Little Wolf High, Shiocton High, Weyauwega High, and Neenah High in most or all subjects, and it leads Hortonville High in Social Studies and Science. It trails Winneconne High and the small Renaissance School in test scores. Outcomes are strong too: a 98.1% graduation rate, 0.3% dropout rate, and 6.2% chronic absenteeism, better than the state and most neighbors.

The school achieves this with moderate resources — about $14,107 per student and a 14.3 student-teacher ratio — while outperforming several higher-spending nearby districts. About 29.7% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch. Subgroup results are generally strong: male students ranked in the 87th percentile statewide, low-income students in the 78th, and special education students in the 54th, which is above the state median. The long-term trend is striking: New London High climbed from the 29th percentile (1 star) in 2015–2016 to the 92nd percentile in 2023–2024, and after a dip in 2022–2023 it rebounded quickly in scores and attendance.
