Summary
Parkview High is a small public high school in Orfordville, WI, serving grades 9–12 with 187 students as part of the Parkview School District. In 2025–2026, Parkview High ranked 122nd of 533 Wisconsin high schools — the 77th percentile with 4 stars — which is well above its own district's 37th-percentile ranking. That gap between school and district is one of the most striking things about Parkview, and the school has been on a strong two-year run, reaching the 78th percentile in 2024–2025 after a weaker 2023–2024.
Academically, Parkview's 2025–2026 10th-grade proficiency rates were above both district and state in all four subjects: Social Studies 53.85%, English Language Arts 51.28%, Mathematics 56.41%, and Science 56.41%. Math and science are the standout strengths — roughly 13–14 points above the state. Among nearby schools, Rock University High is the top local performer (Math 76.19%, Science 71.43%, ELA 95.24%), while Parkview sits above Evansville High, Parker High, Turner High, and others. The closest comparison is Brodhead High, 6.55 miles away with a similar free/reduced lunch rate; Parkview beats it in Social Studies, Math, and Science.
Outcomes are excellent: a 100% graduation rate and 0.0% dropout rate in 2024–2025, above district and state. Chronic absenteeism was 14.5% — better than the state's 17.3% but higher than the district's 11.0%, and not top-tier locally. The biggest positive signal is Parkview's performance with low-SES students, ranked 35th of 446 (92nd percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–2026, stronger than the school's overall ranking. Caveats: enrollment is small, results can fluctuate year to year, and ELA is solid but less dominant than math and science.
