I am a seventh grader here at Williams Bay. Instead of us having a Junior high building, the high school building is combine with the Junior high building. I love this school because, even though it is small, it is great! The teachers are smart, and will give you help when ever it is needed. There has never been problems with drugs or alcohol. And our school always has high test scores. Williams Bay is awesome!

I love this school and I wouldn't transfer for the world! The staff, teachers, and students are so hospitable and friendly, and there is no I repeat no drugs, smoking, or other types of abuse going on in this school. Everyone knows everyone, and there are plenty of friends to go around. Send your kids here!

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.
