Summary:

ZIP code 53085 is home to a single middle school, Sheboygan Falls Middle, which serves grades 5–8 with 415 students in the Sheboygan Falls School District. Because it is the only middle school in the area, families have one option to consider, and its full profile is detailed below.

The school has held a 3-star rating for three straight years, ranking in the 53rd percentile in 2025–26 (304 of 643 schools), though that percentile has eased from 57 in 2023–24 and 54 in 2024–25. Academically, 8th grade Social Studies is the clearest strength, at 74.77% proficient in 2024–25 and 71.43% in 2025–26 — both well above state averages. Grade 7 is consistently above state in both ELA and Math, and 8th grade Math posted the biggest gain, rising from 42.34% to 56.12%, moving from 10.72 points below state to 2.45 points above. The main weak spots are grades 5 and 6 Math, which came in at 43.30% and 42.86% in 2025–26 (8.51 and 10.74 points below state), and grade 6 ELA, which fell to 49.45% and now trails the state by 5.50 points.

Attendance stands out: chronic absenteeism is just 3.8%, compared with 6.6% districtwide and 17.3% statewide, and the dropout rate is 0.8%, below the state's 1.1%. About 29.16% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $14,901, and the student-teacher ratio is 10.9. The school appears stronger than its district overall, which is rated 2 stars at the 33rd percentile. Taken together, the picture is solid but mixed: strong Social Studies and grade 7 results, a major grade 8 Math improvement, and very low absenteeism, offset by weaker grades 5–6 Math, softer grade 6 ELA, and a slight downward drift in state percentile.
