Summary

Pardeeville High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Pardeeville, Wisconsin, with a total enrollment of 274 students. The school is part of the Pardeeville Area School District, which is ranked 268 out of 426 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pardeeville High's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 88th out of 390 Wisconsin high schools in 2020-2021 (4-star rating) to 290th out of 431 in 2024-2025 (2-star rating). This is generally lower than nearby schools like Fall River High (ranked 32nd in 2024-2025 with a 5-star rating) and Rio Middle/High (ranked 130th in 2024-2025 with a 4-star rating). The school's female students have consistently outperformed their male counterparts, and its performance for low socioeconomic status students has been mixed.

Pardeeville High has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 90.4% to 93.6% in recent years, and a low dropout rate between 1.3% and 4.4%. However, the school's test scores in subjects like Mathematics and Science have been lower compared to the state and district averages, as well as nearby high-performing schools. The school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio are comparable to the nearby schools, but it could benefit from learning from the practices and strategies employed by these higher-performing institutions to improve its overall academic excellence.
