Augusta School District operates 4 public schools serving 604 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Wisconsin. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other, 1 high, 1 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 540 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Eau Claire County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $23,047 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 36.8% local, 43.5% state, and 19.6% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $90,663 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 87/100, ranked #11 of 403 in Wisconsin against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Demographically, the student body averages 94.3% White, 2.1% Hispanic or Latino, 0.2% African American across the district's schools.
Augusta Elementary accounts for 39.8% of all Augusta School District student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Augusta School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Augusta School District school enrollment ranges from 72 students (lowest) to 215 students (highest), a spread of 143 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio — most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Augusta School District student-counselor ratio is 156:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Augusta School District chronic absenteeism rate is 30.1% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
