Summary:
ZIP code 53147 in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin contains two public high schools serving grades 9–12 — Badger High and New Visions Charter School — both in the Lake Geneva-Genoa City Union High School School District and both sharing the same campus address at 220 E South St. Combined enrollment is 1,271 students, but the two schools are dramatically different in size: Badger High enrolls 1,240 students, while New Visions Charter School enrolls just 31.
Badger High is the larger, higher-ranked school. It placed 170th out of 533 schools in 2025–2026 (68th percentile, 3 stars), up from the 61st percentile in 2023–2024, and its ACT proficiency exceeds the state in English Language Arts (56.78% vs. 48.47%), Mathematics (49.15% vs. 42.93%), and Science (51.27% vs. 43.2%). It graduates 96.7% of students with a 0.4% dropout rate, though chronic absenteeism of 20.0% is above the state's 17.3%. New Visions ranked 474th of 533 (11th percentile, 1 star). It reported a 100.0% graduation rate and 0.0% chronic absenteeism, but also a 3.1% dropout rate and 0% proficiency in ACT English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science in 2025–2026, with 37.5% in 10th-grade Social Studies. Because only 31 students attend, a single student can noticeably shift these percentages.
New Visions serves a higher free/reduced-lunch population (48.39% vs. 26.69%) and spends more per student ($19,406 vs. $16,280), a pattern common among very small schools. Its student-teacher ratio is not reported, so it should be treated as unknown. The district overall ranks 324th of 432 (25th percentile, 1 star), a figure that masks how differently these two schools perform individually.
