The district's performance is mixed, with some schools struggling to meet state averages on standardized tests. Graduation rates at Menasha High School are above the state average, but chronic absenteeism rates vary widely, from 8.3% at Fox Valley Virtual School to 28.7% at Gegan Elementary. The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients suggest that many students in the district come from low-income families, which may impact academic performance. Addressing factors like socioeconomic status, racial diversity, and chronic absenteeism may be key to improving outcomes across the district.
