Summary:
ZIP code 54491 is served by a single public high school, White Lake High, a grades 9–12 campus at 405 Bissell St in White Lake, Wisconsin, with 44 students in the White Lake School District.
Because it is the only high school in the area, there is nothing to compare it against locally, but its results against state averages are mixed and generally encouraging in the humanities. White Lake High posts a 100% graduation rate for 2024–2025, above Wisconsin's 92%, and its chronic absenteeism of 15.4% is better than the state's 17.3%, though slightly above the district's 15.2%. Achievement is strongest in reading and social studies: ELA ACT proficiency is 60% versus 48.47% statewide, and Social Studies Forward Exam proficiency is 55.56% versus 48.25% statewide in 2025–2026 and 47.67% in 2024–2025. Math is close to the state line at 40% versus 42.93%. The clear weak spot is Science ACT proficiency at just 20%, far below the state's 43.2% — and the district's own 18.18% suggests this is a broader local pattern rather than one classroom. The dropout rate of 2.4% is also above both the district's 1.5% and the state's 1.1%.
The school's resource profile looks generous: a student-teacher ratio of 9.4 and per-student spending of $24,721, with 54.55% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Rankings place it mid-pack — 273 of 533 schools, 49th percentile, 2 stars in 2025–2026, and a district rank of 275 of 432, 36th percentile, 2 stars — but that is a striking climb from 441 of 466, 5th percentile, 0 stars in 2014–2015. One caution for parents: with only 44 students, every percentage here can shift on the performance of just a few students, so treat these numbers as directional rather than precise.
