Summary:
The 54937 zip code area in North Fond du Lac, Wisconsin is home to 6 schools serving grades K-12, all part of the North Fond du Lac School District. This district is ranked 409 out of 426 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in student performance and outcomes.
Among the schools, Treffert Way for the Exceptional Mind, a public charter elementary/middle school, stands out with the highest per-student spending at $21,483 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.7. However, its academic performance is mixed, with some grades performing well below the district and state averages on standardized tests. In contrast, Exploration Charter High School, an alternative public charter high school, has the lowest enrollment at just 15 students but outperforms the district and state on the 10th grade social studies exam.
Across the district, the schools face significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 17.7% to 28.24%, and wide variations in free/reduced lunch rates, from 28.24% at Early Learning Center to 53.03% at Friendship Learning Elementary. Standardized test scores also vary greatly, with some schools significantly underperforming the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The district's overall low ranking and the mixed performance of its charter schools suggest the need for a comprehensive review and improvement plan to address the systemic issues impacting student outcomes.
