Summary

Osseo-Fairchild Middle is a small rural public middle school in Osseo, Wisconsin, serving grades 6–8 with 161 students as part of the Osseo-Fairchild School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 417th of 643 Wisconsin middle schools (35th percentile, 2 stars), while its district ranked 305th of 432 (29th percentile, 1 star). The school's results have swung widely: it reached 160th of 613 (74th percentile, 4 stars) in 2020–2021, then slid to 65th percentile in 2021–2022, 50th in 2022–2023, 51st in 2023–2024, 31st in 2024–2025, and 35th now. With only 161 students, single-year swings can be large, so sustained trends matter more than any one year.

Academically, the clearest pressure point is 8th grade. In 2025–2026, 8th-grade ELA (37.74%), math (43.4%), social studies (49.06%), and science (39.62%) all fell below state averages — and ELA, math, and social studies trailed every nearby school compared here. Grades 6 and 7 look stronger: 6th-grade ELA (56.6%), 7th-grade ELA (57.78%), and 7th-grade math (57.78%) came in above state averages, though still behind South Middle, Altoona Middle, and Fall Creek Middle. Carrying those younger cohorts successfully into 8th grade is the school's biggest opportunity.

Attendance is a genuine bright spot. Chronic absenteeism was 6.4% in 2024–2025 — the lowest in the comparison group and well below the district's 11.4% and the state's 17.3% — down from 36.7% in 2021–2022. Dropout rates were 0.0%. Subgroup results are more uneven: female students ranked near or above average, while male, special education, and low-SES students sat in the bottom quartile statewide in recent years. Notably, the school spends $16,587 per student and has a low 10.8 student-teacher ratio — more resources and smaller classes than several higher-ranked neighbors — suggesting the path forward lies in instruction, curriculum, and targeted support rather than funding alone.
