Summary:
Zip code 54742 is served by three schools — Fall Creek Elementary (PK–4), Fall Creek Middle (5–8), and Fall Creek High (9–12) — all part of the Fall Creek School District, which enrolls 949 students and ranks 103 of 432 districts in Wisconsin, in the 76th percentile with 4 stars.
All three schools perform well, but they stand out in different ways. Fall Creek High is the strongest overall, ranking 71 of 533 schools (87th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026, with a 96.8% graduation rate versus the state's 92.0%, a 0.0% dropout rate, and proficiency above the state in every reported subject. Fall Creek Middle is also strong and improving, moving from the 72nd percentile to the 81st over three years; its 8th graders posted 85.33% proficiency in mathematics versus the state's 53.67%. Fall Creek Elementary has the lowest rank of the three but the sharpest momentum, rising from the 35th to the 54th percentile and from 2 stars to 3 stars. Its 3rd grade mathematics results (73.61% vs. 54.75%) and its 6.8% chronic absenteeism rate — far below the state's 17.3% — are notable strengths.
Comparing the three, the elementary school has the highest student-teacher ratio (17.3) and the lowest per-pupil spending ($11,881), while the high school spends the most ($13,359) and the middle school has the smallest classes (14.1). The high school has the lowest free/reduced lunch rate at 18.15%; the middle school has the highest at 27.55% and still outperforms the state on most tests. Weak spots are grade-specific rather than school-wide: 5th grade mathematics at the middle school (36.71% vs. state 51.81%) and 4th grade science and ELA at the elementary school remain below state. All three schools keep chronic absenteeism below the state average, and district scores mirror school scores for each grade because each school is the only Fall Creek school serving its grade band.
