Summary

Park High is a public school in Racine, Wisconsin, serving grades 7–12 with 1,203 students as part of the Racine Unified School District, a district ranked 411 of 432 in Wisconsin, so the school's results sit inside one of the state's lowest-ranked districts. Statewide, Park ranked 490 of 533 high schools in 2025-2026 (8th percentile, 0 stars), still very low but a step up from 2024-2025 (422 of 431, 2nd percentile), 2023-2024 (426 of 431, 1st percentile), and 2022-2023 (409 of 415, 1st percentile).

Compared with nearby schools, Park sits near the bottom of the group. It posts higher proficiency than Horlick High in social studies, ELA, and math and is about even in science, but lower than Case High and Bradford High in all four subjects, and far below Walden III High and The REAL School in most. Proficiency is below the district and far below the state in every subject: 16.37% social studies, 17.86% ELA, 10.32% math, and 12.00% science, against state rates of 48.25%, 48.47%, 42.93%, and 43.20%. The largest gaps are in math and science; even Park's strongest subject, social studies, is roughly a third of the state rate.

There are encouraging trends. The graduation rate rose from 66.2% in 2020-2021 to 81.1% in 2024-2025, and the dropout rate fell from 8.6% in 2021-2022 to 2.5% in 2024-2025, though both remain worse than district and state averages. Chronic absenteeism is the biggest constraint: 57.6% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, versus 36.5% in the district and 17.3% statewide, and far above Walden III High (20.8%) and The REAL School (28.3%). Park spends $17,071 per student with a 13.7 student-teacher ratio—more favorable than Case High, Walden III High, The REAL School, and Bradford High—yet outcomes stay low, suggesting attendance, instruction, and student support matter more than funding or class size. School effectiveness ranks in the bottom quartile for nearly every student group, lowest for low-income students at the 4th percentile.
