Summary:
The 54246 zip code is home to two small schools, Washington Island Elementary and Washington Island High, both part of the Washington Island School District. These schools stand out for their strong academic performance, with test scores exceeding state averages in several subjects, and significant financial investment, with spending per student well above the state average.
Washington Island Elementary serves grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 37 students, while Washington Island High serves grades 9-12 with 19 students. Both schools have low dropout rates and relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, an area the district may want to address. The elementary school's test scores are particularly impressive, with 8th-grade ELA proficiency at 83.33% compared to the state average of 50.36%. The high school also performs well, with 50% of 10th-grade students proficient in math and 66.67% proficient in social studies, both exceeding state averages.
Despite the small school sizes, which can present challenges, the data suggests the schools in the 54246 zip code are providing a high-quality education. The significant financial investment, as evidenced by the high spending per student, appears to be contributing to the positive academic outcomes. However, the district should monitor the declining statewide ranking of the elementary school and address the chronic absenteeism concerns to ensure continued success for all students.
