D C Everest Junior High

Public Grades 8-9

Summary

D C Everest Junior High is a grades 8–9 school in Weston, Wisconsin with 848 students, part of the D C Everest Area School District — and it is the only school within 20 miles, so the district and the state are the available benchmarks. That district ranks 210th of 432 in Wisconsin (about the 51st percentile, 3 stars). In 2025-26, D C Everest Junior High beat both the district and the state in all four Forward Exam subjects tested: 66.99% proficient in English Language Arts, 66.02% in math, 75.00% in social studies, and 53.16% in science. ELA and math were each more than 12 points above the state average; science was only 1.30 points above, making it the relative weak spot.

Trends are encouraging. Math proficiency rose from 34.72% in 2022-23 to 66.02% in 2025-26 — about 31 points — and ELA climbed from 46.21% to 66.99%, about 21 points. Social studies has usually been the strongest subject, dipping in 2023-24 before reaching 75.00%; science is the least consistent, falling below the state average in 2024-25 (48.37% versus 50.04%) before recovering. Outside test scores, the 2024-25 dropout rate was 0.3%, below the district's 0.5% and the state's 1.1%. Chronic absenteeism, however, was 15.6% — higher than the district's 10.9% but below the state's 17.3%, and improved from 18.1% in 2022-23.

On resources: free/reduced lunch was 33.96% in 2024-25, per-student spending was $13,137 (up about 8.9% over four years), and the student-teacher ratio was 15.4. One caveat for families: because the school serves grades 8–9, the Forward Exam results cover 8th grade only, so 9th-grade performance isn't reflected here. Overall this is a solidly performing school — above the state in nearly every tested subject, with standout social studies and fast-improving math and ELA — while science and chronic absenteeism are the clearest areas to watch.
