Summary

Webster Middle is a public middle school in Webster, WI, serving 184 students in grades 5–8 as part of the Webster School District. The district ranks 262 of 432 Wisconsin districts (39th percentile, 2 stars), and the school ranks 387 of 643 middle schools in 2025–2026 (40th percentile, 2 stars). Its recent history has been mostly 2-star, with an unsustained 2020–2021 high of 77th percentile and 4 stars. The nearby Grantsburg Middle (15.85 miles away, grades 4–8, 278 students) ranks 222 of 643 (65th percentile, 3 stars), even though the Grantsburg School District ranks 302 of 432 (30th percentile, 2 stars). The school has higher poverty (53.26% vs. 39.93% free/reduced lunch) and higher per-student spending ($15,576 vs. $13,603), with similar student-teacher ratios.

Academically, math is the clearest weakness: the school is below the state in every tested grade in 2025–2026. The largest gap is 7th grade math, where 36.17% are proficient versus 55.67% statewide and 69.81% at Grantsburg Middle. Fifth grade math is 40.48% versus 51.81% statewide, and 8th grade math is 51.11% versus 53.67% statewide. ELA is more mixed: 6th grade ELA is a bright spot at 58.33%, above the state (54.95%) and the nearby school (44.83%), while 5th grade ELA is above state but below the nearby school. Seventh and 8th grade ELA, plus 8th grade social studies and science, trail both. Compared with 2024–2025, ELA improved across all grades, but math was volatile; 7th grade math fell from 54.17% to 36.17%.

Attendance and dropout are relative strengths. Chronic absenteeism improved from 20.1% in 2020–2021 to 14.1% in 2024–2025, below the state rate of 17.3%, though above the district rate of 11.6%. The dropout rate has been 0.0%. Some student groups have lower effectiveness rankings, including male students and low-income students; low-SES rankings dropped from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 26th–28th percentile. Overall, its strengths are 6th grade ELA, improving attendance, and very low dropout, while its most pressing concern is math, especially in grades 5 and 7.
