The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) produces annual report cards for every district and school in Wisconsin. These Accountability Report Cards include data on multiple indicators for multiple years across four Priority Areas:
- Student Achievement – performance on the state reading and mathematics tests
- Student Growth – improvement over time on the state reading and mathematics tests
- Closing Gaps – progress of student subgroups in closing gaps in reading and mathematics performance and/or graduation rates
- On-track and Postsecondary Readiness – performance on key indicators of readiness for graduation and postsecondary pursuits, whether college or career
Performance on three Student Engagement Indicators is also reported. These three indicators affect student success and school effectiveness.
- Test Participation Rate, with a goal of 95 percent test participation for all students and each subgroup.
- Absenteeism Rate, with a goal of 13 percent or less.
- Dropout Rate, with a goal of six percent or less.
Districts and schools receive one of five ratings: significantly exceeds expectations, exceeds expectations, meets expectations, meets few expectations or fails to meet expectation.
On November 12, 2019, the state released ratings for the 2018-2019 school year. The School District of Tomahawk received a rating of Exceeds Expectations. Tomahawk Elementary, Tomahawk Middle School, and Tomahawk High School all achieved ratings of Exceeds Expectations.
