Summary:
The 53089 zip code area is home to 6 highly-ranked schools across 3 elementary, 2 middle, and 1 high school, all part of the Hamilton School District and the Richmond School District. These districts are among the best in Wisconsin, with 5-star ratings.
Several schools stand out as exceptional performers, including Hamilton High School, ranked 15th out of 431 Wisconsin high schools, and Maple Avenue Elementary and Richmond Elementary, both ranked in the top 30 out of over 1,000 elementary schools in the state. These schools boast impressive test scores, high graduation rates, and low dropout rates.
While the schools generally perform well above state averages, there are some areas for improvement, such as addressing the 17.7% chronic absenteeism rate across all schools. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, with the highest-performing schools having the lowest rates of free/reduced lunch recipients. The districts may want to further investigate funding allocation and its impact on student outcomes.
