Summary
Lake Country School is a highly-ranked public elementary and middle school serving grades PK-8 in Hartland, Wisconsin. Part of the Lake Country School District, which is among the top-performing districts in the state, Lake Country School has consistently been recognized as one of the best elementary schools in Wisconsin.
The school's academic performance is exceptional, with students significantly outperforming state and district averages on the Forward Exam, a standardized test used in Wisconsin. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, proficiency rates at Lake Country School ranged from 75% to 89.36% in English Language Arts and 80% to 100% in Mathematics across grade levels. The school also excels in the performance of various student subgroups, ranking among the top schools in the state for female, male, white, and low socioeconomic status students. When compared to nearby schools like Swallow Elementary, which is only 2.62 miles away, Lake Country School generally outperforms them in academic performance and other key metrics.
While Lake Country School has very low dropout rates, the school has experienced higher chronic absenteeism rates in recent years, ranging from 4.6% to 19.5%. The district and school should address this concern to further enhance the school's overall performance. Additionally, the school's higher spending per student, ranging from $11,260 to $13,709 per student, and relatively low student-teacher ratios (13.4 to 15.1) may be contributing factors to its strong academic outcomes, suggesting that the district is investing resources to support student learning.
