Summary

Wixom Elementary School serves 438 students in grades PK-5 in Wixom, MI, as part of the Walled Lake Consolidated Schools district, and has consistently earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade.

Wixom Elementary is a solid, above-average school, but a few specific areas stand out for parents to know. The most notable is a significant dip in 5th-grade performance during the 2024-2025 school year, when proficiency in English Language Arts fell to 40% and math to 38.6%—well below district averages. Scores rebounded strongly the following year (61% ELA, 50.8% math), suggesting the issue was tied to a particular cohort of students rather than a systemic problem. A more persistent concern is 5th-grade social studies, where proficiency has consistently lagged behind the district (24.1% vs. 38.2% in 2025-2026). The school also has a higher chronic absenteeism rate (18.3%) than nearby peers like Hickory Woods Elementary School (12.0%) and Novi Woods Elementary School (12.1%), though it remains below the state average. Additionally, the school's effectiveness with its low-income students has been declining, with its subgroup ranking dropping from the 64th to the 48th percentile over three years.

On the positive side, Wixom shows a notable strength in serving its special education students, who ranked in the 81st percentile statewide in 2024-2025—an area where many schools struggle. The school also operates efficiently, with lower per-student spending ($15,614) and larger class sizes (16.9 student-teacher ratio) than some district peers like Walled Lake Elementary School ($18,688, 13.3 ratio), yet still achieves comparable results. While Wixom doesn't match the near-elite performance of nearby Novi Community School District schools like Parkview Elementary School, it remains a dependable choice with strong overall academics and a few targeted areas for improvement.

4t grade teachers are horrible. Hope your child does not need to learn anything. They wont learn it in 4th grade. Class sizes are way too big. 29 students is ridiculous and the teachers argue with you instead of trying to find a resolution Close Quote
