Summary:
The 54520 zip code has only one middle school, Crandon Middle School, which is part of the Crandon School District. This school has struggled to provide a high-quality education for its students, as evidenced by its declining statewide ranking, consistently low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, and poor academic performance across multiple metrics.
Crandon Middle School has a concerning 2.5% dropout rate and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 33.9%, both of which are significantly worse than state averages. Student performance on the Forward Exam is also well below the state average, with only 33.33% of 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 50.36%. The school serves a relatively low-income student population, with 40.64% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
While the school has a slightly lower student-teacher ratio than the state average, this does not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes. The high per-student spending and the school's struggles suggest that significant interventions and improvements may be necessary to ensure that students in the 54520 zip code have access to a high-quality education.
