High Schools in Wittenberg-Birnamwood School District

The Wittenberg-Birnamwood School District in Wisconsin has only one high school, Wittenberg-Birnamwood High, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 331 students. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 263 out of 431 Wisconsin high schools in 2023-2024 to 307 out of 415 in 2022-2023, and its SchoolDigger rating varying from 2 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 to 1 star out of 5 in the previous two years.

Wittenberg-Birnamwood High has a 94.4% four-year graduation rate and a 0.9% dropout rate, but its academic proficiency rates on the Forward Exam and ACT tests are generally lower than the state averages, with the exception of Social Studies proficiency, which is higher. The school's proficiency rates are also lower than the Wittenberg-Birnamwood School District's overall performance in most subject areas. Additionally, over 37% of Wittenberg-Birnamwood High students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.1 to 1, which could suggest a focus on smaller class sizes and more individualized attention, Wittenberg-Birnamwood High's overall performance appears to be underperforming compared to the state and district averages. This may be influenced by the socioeconomic factors affecting the student population, but further investigation would be needed to fully understand the school's challenges and strengths.
