Summary

Seneca High is a small public high school in Seneca, Wisconsin, serving grades 9–12 with 92 students as part of the Seneca Area School District, which ranks 166th of 432 districts in the state.

Academically, Seneca has a distinctive profile. Social studies is a clear strength: 75% of 10th-graders were proficient in 2025–2026, the highest among nearby high schools and well above the state's 48.25%. English language arts is also the strongest nearby at 45%, though slightly below the state's 48.47%. Math and science are the weak spots at 25% each — far below the state's 42.93% and 43.2%, and behind Prairie du Chien High and De Soto High. Social studies has been steady for three straight years, while math and science have swung widely, from 51.72% proficiency in 2023–2024 down to 25% most recently. With only 92 students, a handful of students can shift these percentages a lot, so multi-year trends are more telling than any single year.

Graduation is a bright spot at 100% in 2024–2025, above the state's 92%. Attendance and persistence look less strong: 2.1% dropout and 16.9% chronic absenteeism, above the district's rate and higher than most nearby schools. De Soto High is higher at 19.7%, while Prairie du Chien High (4.9%), Boscobel High (3.5%), Wauzeka High (1.3%), and North Crawford High (6.5%) are lower. Resources are moderate — $17,039 per student, a 12.7 student-teacher ratio that is the highest among nearby high schools, and the lowest free/reduced lunch rate nearby at 34.78%. The school's effectiveness ranking for low-income students (66th percentile, 3 stars) sits above its overall standing, showing that results vary by group.
