Schools in Zip Code 55336

ZIP code 55336 is home to five schools serving roughly 1,409 students across elementary, middle, and high school grades, with almost all enrollment concentrated in the Glencoe-Silver Lake School District — four schools covering about 98.6% of students in the area — plus one very small high school program, SWWC Alternative Learning Center -, which enrolls just 19 students under Region 6 and 8-SW/Wc Service Coop. Parents should know that the academic picture is incomplete: Lincoln Elementary serves PK–2 and has no test scores reported, and all school-level test scores for SWWC are listed as “—” because the state suppressed them to protect student privacy. Those values are unknown, not zero.

Among schools with reported results, Lakeside Elementary is the clear standout, beating the state average in all three subjects for 2025-26 — math 59.7%, reading 49.3%, and science 27.8% — and holding a 3-star rating with percentiles of 63, 61, and 65 over three years. Glencoe-Silver Lake Senior High shows the opposite pattern in test scores: a 96.0% graduation rate and 2.4% dropout rate, well better than the state, but 2025-26 proficiency below state in math (23.9%), reading (23.0%), and science (17.3%), with its rank percentile falling from 63 to 23 and stars dropping from 3 to 1. GSL Junior High School is also below state in every subject, ending at 2 stars.

Science is the district-wide weak spot outside Lakeside: the junior high posts 8.5% versus the state’s 25.5%, and the senior high 17.3%. Free/reduced lunch rates and outcomes do not track simply here — the junior high has the lowest rate among GSL schools at 27.68% yet lower scores, while Lakeside has a higher rate at 39.95% with stronger results. Class sizes also vary widely, from 19.8 students per teacher at the senior high to 12.2 at Lincoln and 9.4 at the 19-student SWWC.
