Big Foot Uhs School District, WI

Original Research by School Decision on Big Foot Uhs School District

BigFoot UHS School District is a high-school-only district in Walworth County, Wisconsin, serving grades nine through twelve through its single school, Big Foot High. With a total enrollment in the mid-hundreds, it is a relatively small high school setting where students from several surrounding communities come together for their secondary education. The district does not operate elementary or middle schools, so students typically attend other local districts before entering Big Foot.

The student body is predominantly white, with a sizable Hispanic population accounting for roughly one-quarter of enrollment. Small shares of Asian, Black, and multiracial students round out the demographic picture. Data on how many students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, or receive special education or English learner services, is not available, leaving an incomplete view of the district's economic and support profile.

Chronic absenteeism, a measure of how often students miss a substantial portion of the school year, sits below the midpoint among Walworth County's districts. That means the rate is better than half of its county peers, though above the very lowest rates. On per-pupil current spending, the district falls in the middle range on the upper end of the county's sixteen districts—neither the highest nor the lowest spender, but somewhat above the typical level.

Academic performance data is absent. State testing results and a four-year graduation rate, which one would expect for a high school district, were not reported in the available data. Without these, a family cannot gauge student achievement levels or graduation outcomes from this account alone. A parent may want to ask the district directly for its most recent state report card or graduation figures.

The district draws from a collection of communities spanning a mix of housing markets. The typical home value in the district's coverage area sits roughly in the mid- to upper tier for the region, though it varies widely by zip code—from more affordable areas on the lower end to pricier lakefront towns. Rent data covers only one area of the district, showing a monthly figure near the national context. Housing affordability in the district, given current mortgage rates, leans toward owning being notably more expensive than renting, a common pattern in many markets.

No information is available on program offerings such as Advanced Placement, dual credit, or career pathways. The district's website was not provided, and the research brief turned up no recent changes or strategic developments to report.

In sum, Big Foot UHS School District is a modestly sized high school district serving a diverse but predominantly white student population across several Walworth County communities. The chronic absenteeism picture is favorable relative to other area districts, and per-pupil spending is somewhat above the county median. The lack of test scores, graduation rate, and program details means families will need to seek those directly from the school to evaluate academic fit.
