Summary
D C Everest High is a large public high school in Weston, Wisconsin, serving roughly 1,335 students in grades 10–12 as part of the D C Everest Area School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 145th of 533 Wisconsin high schools — the 73rd percentile, with 4 stars — a substantial rise from the 43rd percentile and 2 stars it earned in 2020–2021, and near its earlier high of the 76th percentile in 2015–2016. It is a clear bright spot within its district, which overall ranks in the 51st percentile (210th of 432 districts, 3 stars).
Test scores at D C Everest High sit above Wisconsin averages in every subject: math 57.03% (state 42.93%), science 50.64% (43.20%), English language arts 52.43% (48.47%), and social studies 50.38% (48.25%). Math is the standout — about 14 percentage points above the state and the top result among nearby comparison schools, just ahead of Marathon High (56.72%) and Mosinee High (56.52%). Those two outrank D C Everest overall, with higher ELA and science scores, and Edgar High also posts higher ELA and social studies results. Graduation is strong at 96.9%, above the state's 92.0%, East High's 96.8%, and West High's 86.7%, though below Edgar High (98.0%) and Mosinee High (97.4%). The dropout rate, 0.8%, is below the state's 1.1%. Chronic absenteeism is the clearest weak spot at 16.6% — better than the state (17.3%), East High (26.0%), and Marathon High (23.0%), but well above the district's 10.9% and Mosinee High's 12.4%. It has improved from 22.2% in 2021–2022.
D C Everest High spends $13,271 per student, less than most nearby high schools — Mosinee High ($15,899), Edgar High ($16,000), Marathon High ($16,097), and East High ($17,522) — and its 16.8 student-teacher ratio is the highest in that group, showing above-state results with leaner resources and larger classes. Low-income students have improved markedly, from the 41st percentile in 2023–2024 to the 64th in 2025–2026, and English language learner and female students posted the school's strongest subgroup results; male students slipped from the 73rd to the 65th percentile. The biggest opportunities are reducing absenteeism further and lifting English language arts and social studies closer to the school's math performance.
