Summary:
The 54639 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the La Farge School District. Unfortunately, the district as a whole is ranked 391 out of 426 school districts in Wisconsin and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating consistently low academic performance across the schools in this area.
None of the schools in the 54639 zip code stand out as clear academic performers. The Kickapoo Valley Forest School, a public charter elementary school, has the lowest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics on the Forward Exam, though it is a newer school serving only grades PK-2. The other schools, La Farge Elementary, La Farge High, and La Farge Middle, all struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, low test scores compared to state averages, and high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population.
The data suggests that the schools in the 54639 zip code area face systemic challenges, such as resource constraints and staffing issues, that contribute to their consistently low academic performance. Addressing these underlying issues, as well as the high chronic absenteeism rates, will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes for students in this area.
