Summary:
The 54165 zip code is home to a single public high school, Seymour High, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Seymour Community School District. While Seymour High has a slightly higher four-year graduation rate than the state average, it faces several challenges, including a declining statewide ranking, lower-than-average academic performance, and a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Seymour High's statewide ranking has been steadily declining, going from 225 out of 415 high schools in 2022-2023 to 318 out of 431 in 2024-2025. This suggests that the school's performance may be declining relative to other high schools in Wisconsin. Additionally, the school's proficiency rates on the Forward Exam and ACT tests are consistently lower than the state averages across all subjects, indicating that Seymour High may be struggling to provide a high-quality education and prepare students for college and career readiness.
Another area of concern is Seymour High's high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This could be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance issues and may require further investigation and targeted interventions. Furthermore, the school serves a relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with a 31.6% free and reduced-price lunch rate, which may present additional challenges and require specialized support and resources to ensure these students have the same opportunities for academic success.
