Summary:

The zip code 54411 is home to a single middle school, Athens Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. As part of the Athens School District, the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 232 out of 628 Wisconsin middle schools in 2024-2025 to 396 out of 641 in 2023-2024.

Athens Middle School has a relatively small student population of 72 students and generally performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Social Studies, but lags behind in Mathematics and Science. The school's dropout rate was 1.3% in 2023-2024, and it had a 17.7% chronic absenteeism rate that same year. Additionally, 27.78% of students received free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, indicating the school may serve a socioeconomically disadvantaged population.

With a student-teacher ratio of 14.9 in 2023-2024, Athens Middle School has an opportunity to provide more individualized attention and support to its students, which could help address some of the academic gaps. However, the school's fluctuating statewide ranking suggests its performance may be variable from year to year, which could be an area of concern or opportunity for improvement.
