Summary

Random Lake High is a high school in the small community of Random Lake, WI, serving 212 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Random Lake School District. It is one of the smaller high schools in its comparison group—only Ozaukee High and Rocket Academy are smaller. The school ranks 319th of 533 in 2025–2026 (40th percentile, 2 stars), down from 110th of 431 (74th percentile, 4 stars) in 2024–2025. The district is rated lower overall—373rd of 432, 14th percentile, 1 star—so the high school appears to be a relative bright spot within the district.

Academically, 2025–2026 was a down year. Random Lake’s proficiency was below the state in social studies (40.00% vs. 48.25%), ELA (40.48% vs. 48.47%), and math (35.71% vs. 42.93%), while science was above state (45.24% vs. 43.20%). Its ELA and math scores were below every nearby comprehensive high school, and social studies tied with Cedar Grove-Belgium High for the lowest in the group. In 2024–2025, ELA (58.70%), math (63.04%), and science (56.52%) were above state, while social studies (37.21%) was below; social studies has been a persistent weak spot. Small cohorts can swing results, but the multi-year trend has weakened from the mid-80s percentile in 2021–2022 to the 40s in 2025–2026.

Non-academic outcomes are much stronger than the current academic rank. In 2024–2025, Random Lake had a 98.3% graduation rate, a 0.0% dropout rate, and 5.8% chronic absenteeism—all better than the state and most nearby schools. Graduation was second only to Cedar Grove-Belgium High’s 100.0% among nearby comprehensive high schools, and the dropout rate tied with Oostburg High and Ozaukee High for the lowest. Chronic absenteeism was lower than most nearby schools, including several larger nearby high schools. Subgroup gaps remain: male students have been in the lower third for three straight years, special education students were at the 12th percentile in 2025–2026, and low-SES effectiveness fell from the 67th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 32nd in 2025–2026. Overall, the school has a strong completion and attendance foundation, but it must reverse the 2025–2026 academic decline and improve outcomes for groups where effectiveness is lower.
