Better than 93% of Wisconsin middle schools

Summary

Traeger Middle is a public school serving 447 students in grades 6–8 at 3000 W 20th Ave in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, part of the Oshkosh Area School District. It is a top-tier school: ranked 48th out of 643 middle schools statewide in 2025–2026 — the 93rd percentile, 5 stars — and it has never dropped below 4 stars in ten years of rankings. Test scores are strong across every subject and grade tested. In English language arts, Traeger averages roughly 25 points above its own district and 22 points above the state; in math, about 24 points above the district and 18 above the state. Eighth-grade social studies stands out at 87.01% proficient. Chronic absenteeism is 7.2%, less than half the state's rate.

What makes Traeger unusual is how far it stands above its own district, which ranks 335th of 432 districts statewide (22nd percentile). Among Oshkosh middle schools, Traeger outranks Tipler Middle (49th percentile), South Park Middle (30th), and Vel Phillips Middle (21st) — a 44-point gap to the next-best. In 7th grade ELA, Traeger posts 75.32% versus 32.33% at Vel Phillips. Nearby Winneconne Middle is the only peer that clearly exceeds Traeger overall, and it does so while spending about $3,570 less per student; Traeger actually scores higher in 8th grade ELA and social studies.

A few things to watch: 8th grade math proficiency has fallen three years running, from 80% to 77.94% to 69.28%, though it remains above state and district averages. Low-income students slipped from the 96th to the 81st percentile in one year, and chronic absenteeism, while excellent, has drifted up each year since 2020–21. Special education students rank at the 91st–97th percentile for three straight years.
