Summary:
The 53523 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, one of which is a public charter school. Overall, the Cambridge School District appears to be a strong-performing district, with its Cambridge High School ranking among the top high schools in Wisconsin.
Cambridge High School stands out as the top performer in the area, consistently ranking among the top 33-93 high schools in the state and earning 4-5 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The school has strong graduation rates (91% 4-year) and low dropout rates (1.3%). Meanwhile, the Koshkonong Trails School, a public charter high school, has impressive test scores, with 8th-grade students scoring significantly higher than the district and state averages in core subjects.
While the district's elementary and middle schools generally perform around the state average on the Forward Exam, there are some areas of concern, such as the relatively high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, ranging from 17.7% to 28.16%. Additionally, the variation in free/reduced lunch rates and spending per student suggests there may be some socioeconomic differences between the schools that could impact performance. Overall, the data indicates the Cambridge School District is providing a quality education, but there are opportunities for improvement, particularly in addressing attendance issues and addressing any disparities between schools.
