Summary:

ZIP code 54246 covers Washington Island, Wisconsin, and contains just two public schools — Washington Island Elementary (PK–8, 38 students) and Washington Island High (9–12, 23 students) — both part of the Washington Island School District and both located at 888 Main Rd, for a combined enrollment of 61 students. Free/reduced-lunch data is not available for either school.

Washington Island Elementary is the more consistently strong performer. It ranked 353 of 1,044 schools in 2024–2025 (66th percentile, 3 stars), after 302 of 1,061 (72nd percentile, 4 stars) the prior year. Chronic absenteeism is just 5.4%, well below the district's 18.3% and the state's 17.3%. Of eight listed Forward Exam results, five were above the state average and three below — including 6th grade ELA at 83.33% versus the state's 53.66%, though 7th grade ELA came in at 42.86% versus 55.33%. Spending is $26,411 per student with a student-teacher ratio of 5.

Washington Island High stands out differently: $35,744 per student — about 35.3% more than the elementary school — yet chronic absenteeism is 39.1%, roughly 7.2 times the elementary rate and 2.26 times the state rate. Dropout is 0.0%, below the state's 1.1%, and 10th grade ACT math was 50% versus the state's 42.73%. No recent ranking is listed, and the most recent school-level graduation figure is 100% in 2020–2021. With only 23 students in grades 9–12, results can swing sharply from year to year, so these figures should be read with caution.
