Summary

Flambeau Middle is a small public middle school in Tony, WI, serving grades 6–8 with 115 students. It belongs to the Flambeau School District, which ranks 325th of 432 Wisconsin districts—25th percentile, 1 star. Its latest SchoolDigger rank is 500th of 643 middle schools in 2025–2026—22nd percentile, 1 star. Its rank history is mostly bottom-quartile: 22nd percentile in 2025–2026, 16th in 2024–2025, 33rd in 2023–2024, 51st in 2022–2023, and 20th in 2021–2022; 2022–2023 is a clear outlier. Nearby, it is closest to Bruce Middle (23rd percentile) but below Lake Holcombe Middle (39th) and Ladysmith Middle (50th).

The clearest academic weakness is 7th grade core: 8.82% proficient in ELA and 5.88% in math, far below state averages (55.33% and 55.67%) and every nearby school. Yet performance is uneven. 8th grade social studies is a relative strength at 64.71%, essentially the state average (64.63%), above Lake Holcombe Middle and Bruce Middle and nearly tied with Ladysmith Middle. 6th grade ELA and math were both 50%, near or below state and above Bruce Middle/Ladysmith Middle in those grades; 8th grade ELA was 48.48%, second behind Ladysmith Middle. But 8th grade math was 35.29%, lowest nearby and below the state’s 53.67%, and 8th grade science was 41.18%, tied with Lake Holcombe Middle, above Bruce Middle, but below Ladysmith Middle and the state.

Chronic absenteeism is an immediate concern: 26.3% in 2024–2025, above the district’s 18.6% and the state’s 17.3%, and comparable only to Lake Holcombe Middle (28.0%); Bruce Middle (10.0%) and Ladysmith Middle (13.2%) were much lower. It was 11.7% in 2023–2024 and 8.7% in 2022–2023, so the jump is concerning. Dropout was 0.0%, better than the district, state, and Bruce Middle. Special education and low-income subgroups ranked higher (43rd and 35th percentile, 2 stars) than the school overall, suggesting some targeted supports may be working. With 65.22% free/reduced-lunch eligibility but lower per-pupil spending ($15,955 vs. $17,793–$20,231 nearby) and a higher student-teacher ratio (13.8 vs. 9.7–11.2), Flambeau Middle serves a high-need population with fewer resources than its neighbors. Because only 115 students are enrolled, one cohort can swing results, so the 7th grade weakness may be cohort-specific.
