Florence High’s recent results are mixed but generally encouraging. In 2025–2026, it ranked 132 of 533 schools, at the 75th percentile with 4 stars, up from 161 of 431 in 2024–2025, when it was at the 63rd percentile with 3 stars, though this is slightly below its 2023–2024 mark of 93 of 431, at the 78th percentile with 4 stars. The district is ranked 191 of 432, at the 56th percentile with 3 stars, so the school’s recent rank is stronger than the district’s overall rank. Test-score strengths are social studies, where 71.43% were proficient versus Wisconsin’s 48.25%, and English Language Arts, at 60.71% versus 48.47%. Mathematics remains the relative weakness: 39.29% were proficient versus the state’s 42.93%, although that improved from 34.78% the prior year. Science was essentially at the state average, 42.86% versus 43.20%. With only 116 students, year-to-year percentages can shift with just a few students, so trends should be read cautiously.

Outcome measures are more mixed. The graduation rate is 88.4%, compared with Wisconsin’s 92.0%, and the dropout rate is 1.7%, above the district and state rate of 1.1%. Chronic absenteeism is 14.7%, better than the state’s 17.3% but higher than the district’s 8.8%. Resource context includes $23,556 in spending per student, a student-teacher ratio of 11.1, and 35.34% of students receiving free or reduced lunch. The main areas to watch are mathematics proficiency, the graduation rate, and the dropout rate.
