Summary

Stevens Point Area Senior High is a public high school serving grades 10-12 in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, with a total enrollment of 1,458 students. The school is part of the Stevens Point Area Public School District, which is ranked 231 out of 426 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Stevens Point Area Senior High has shown a mixed performance, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 95 and 253 over the years. However, the school's proficiency rates in core subjects like Social Studies (50.55%), English Language Arts (58.04%), Mathematics (49.53%), and Science (48.25%) are higher than the state averages, indicating that it is providing a stronger academic foundation for its students compared to the district and state. The school's four-year graduation rate, ranging from 90.4% to 94.4%, is also relatively high and comparable to nearby schools like Point of Discovery School (91.0%) and Charles F Fernandez Center Alt Learning (91.0%).

However, the school faces challenges in supporting the academic achievement of certain student subgroups, such as Asian, Hispanic, and Special Education students, who perform significantly lower compared to their peers in the state. Additionally, the school has experienced a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 17.7% to 28.0% in recent years, which is higher than the nearby schools. The school's per-student spending has increased over the years, and its student-teacher ratio of 15.5 is higher than the nearby schools, suggesting the need for continued evaluation of resource allocation and targeted interventions to address these areas of concern.
