I think this school is one of the best schools around that we have in this county! I love the 'small town' atmosphere of Wausaukee and graduating classes are normally 40 kids in size. Most of whom have been classmates since kindergarten. We have received the WI. Promise Award 2 years in a row now because we have above average test scores. That shows how hard our teachers are working to make a difference. As a parent, the school is always keeping us up to date with what's going on in school with the weekly 18+ page newsletter we receive. I think the schools doing an excellent job and I'm proud of our Wausaukee School! To learn more about our great school visit the schools website!

Wausaukee High School isn't the best. The school is freezing all the time and I've had complaints from my children. I've noticed they have a problem with they way things have been running. They are planning on changing the high school around and not listing to what the parents and children have to say. The parents are trying to get involved but the school board is not listing to anything.

About the tests

In 2011-2012 Wisconsin used the Wisconsin Student Assessment System (WSAS), which includes the WKCE and WAA, to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in math and reading, and in grades 4, 8 and 10 in language arts, science and social studies. The WSAS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Wisconsin. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level. In private schools, only voucher program participants are tested.

The different student groups are identified by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. If there are fewer than 5 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group. Subgroup scores for each school are only reported for students who were enrolled as of the fall enrollment count. The All students score includes results for all students who took the test, regardless of when they first enrolled in the school.
