WAUZEKA MIDDLE SCHOOL

Wauzeka Middle is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Wauzeka-Steuben School District school district, located in Wauzeka, WI with about 77 students offering grade levels from 5th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, Wauzeka Middle has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Wauzeka Middle School is located in the small village of Wauzeka, Wisconsin, and serves as a vital component of the Wauzeka-Steuben School District. As a rural educational institution, the school focuses on fostering a close-knit community atmosphere where students in the middle grades receive personalized attention. The curriculum is designed to bridge the gap between elementary and high school education, emphasizing foundational academic skills while encouraging students to explore their interests through various extracurricular activities and local community engagement.

The school operates under the mission of the Wauzeka-Steuben School District, which prioritizes student success, academic growth, and character development in a supportive environment. By leveraging its size, the middle school is able to maintain small class ratios, allowing teachers to better address the individual learning needs of their students. With its roots firmly planted in the driftless region of southwestern Wisconsin, Wauzeka Middle School strives to prepare its students for the academic and social demands of high school while cultivating a strong sense of school pride and local responsibility.
