Phelps School District

District Overview
Nestled at 4451 Old School Rd in the peaceful, remote rural setting of Phelps, Wisconsin, the Phelps School District provides an inviting and continuous educational journey for students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Operating as an open, traditional public school district with two functional school facilities, it serves as an educational cornerstone for the local northwoods community. As an independent, non-charter district, Phelps offers a supportive and unified environment where young learners can grow from early childhood education all the way to high school graduation within a single, close-knit district setting.

With a total enrollment of 88 students—comprising 49 female and 39 male learners—the district achieves a remarkably intimate academic atmosphere. This small student body is supported by a robust professional team, including nearly 27 full-time equivalent teachers, two instructional aides, and over 35 dedicated support staff, bringing the total district staffing to approximately 64 full-time equivalent positions. This extraordinary staff-to-student ratio ensures highly personalized instruction, strong mentorship, and comprehensive student services across all grade levels.
