Summary:
In this data set, Coloma, Wisconsin has one public school, Coloma Elementary, serving grades PK–5 as part of the Westfield School District. It is a small school with about 100 students, a student–teacher ratio of 11.1, per-student spending of $13,373, and 47% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025. Its ranking has fallen sharply, from 3 stars and the 67th percentile in 2023–2024 to 1 star and the 28th percentile in 2025–2026.
The clearest strengths are 3rd grade math, where 86.67% were proficient in 2025–2026, far above the district’s 53.33% and the state’s 54.75%, and 5th grade English language arts at 57.14%, above the district’s 51.22% and the state’s 53.63%. Science was also a strength in 2024–2025, with 4th grade at 62.5% proficient, above the district’s 51.81% and the state’s 50.83%. The biggest concerns are in 4th grade in 2025–2026: English language arts was 18.75% proficient, versus 39.68% in the district and 53.87% statewide; math was 31.25%, versus 36.51% in the district and 52.87% statewide; social studies was 50%, versus 55.56% in the district and 65.51% statewide; and science was 25%, versus 34.92% in the district and 53.46% statewide.
Across the reported tests, the school’s simple average was 54.69% in 2024–2025, slightly above the state’s 53.95% and well above the district’s 46.75%. In 2025–2026, it fell to 44.85%, while the district averaged 44.32% and the state averaged 54.75%. Chronic absenteeism was 17.1%, close to the district’s 17.0% and the state’s 17.3%. With only about 100 students, grade-level results can swing widely from year to year, so the school’s current bright spots are 3rd grade math and 5th grade English language arts, while the most urgent needs appear to be 4th grade English language arts, 4th grade math, and science.
