Summary

George D Warriner Middle is a very small public middle school in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, serving 43 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Sheboygan Area School District. In 2025–26, it ranked 447th of 643 Wisconsin middle schools (30th percentile, 2 stars), a partial rebound from 2024–25 (537th of 628, 14th percentile, 1 star). That was its lowest reported point, down from 2016–17 (144th of 612, 76th percentile, 4 stars). The school reports 0.0% chronic absenteeism (2020–21 through 2024–25), 0.0% dropout in most years, a 10.4 student-teacher ratio, $17,221 per-student spending, and a 62.79% free/reduced-lunch rate.

Within the same district, Warriner is the smallest school—43 students versus 617 at Horace Mann Middle, 568 at Urban Middle, and 443 at Farnsworth Middle. It also has the highest per-student spending and lowest student-teacher ratio among these peers, and its 0.0% chronic absenteeism contrasts sharply with Etude Middle (40.3%), just 0.01 miles away. Compared with nearby non-Sheboygan middle schools, the gap is large: Warriner’s 30th percentile is far below Oostburg Middle (98), Kohler Middle (99), Cedar Grove-Belgium Middle (93), Howards Grove Middle (91), Riverview Middle (73), and Sheboygan Falls Middle (53). Those schools also have much lower free/reduced-lunch rates. The broader district ranks in the 21st percentile, so low performance is partly district-wide.

On the 2025–26 Forward Exam, Warriner’s strengths were 8th-grade social studies (66.67% proficient, above district and state), 8th-grade ELA (50%, above district but below state), and 8th-grade science (50%, above district but slightly below state). Mathematics remains the clearest weakness: 7th grade at 35.71% and 8th grade at 33.33%, both well below district and state. In 2024–25, results were much weaker. Subgroup rankings show relative effectiveness for special education students (85th percentile, 4 stars in 2023–24) and low socio-economic status students (57th percentile, 3 stars in 2023–24), but 2024–25 was lower for female (14th percentile) and male (7th percentile) students. With only 43 students, single-year swings can be large; multi-year trends show a school that was once above average but has spent most of the past several years in the bottom third of Wisconsin middle schools.

Tuesday, April 22, 2014

This school is very amazing. It had the most wonderful, and caring teachers who actually care about you and your future. They push you in a way you don't realize you're being pushed, but are progressing. If you are behind, you can catch up, ahead you can keep going. Students are very close, and get to know their teachers and each other very well. There's a homey, and loving atmosphere. Everyone loves to laugh and joke around, and it's strict without being too strict. This school is amazing, and students are welcomed into the loving arms of George D. Warriner. Welcome to WMS!
