Summary:
Endeavor, Wisconsin has one public school, Endeavor Elementary, a K–5 school with 57 students at 414 Church St, part of the Portage Community School District. It is the only school in the city, so there are no local school-to-school comparisons; families should compare it with the district and state instead. The school’s 2024–2025 profile shows a 12.2 student-teacher ratio, $17,414 per-student spending, and 33.33% free/reduced lunch participation. Chronic absenteeism is 12.5%, lower than the district’s 20.4% and the state’s 17.3%, which is a clear strength.
Academically, math is Endeavor Elementary’s strongest and most consistent subject. In 2025–2026, math proficiency was 85.71% in 3rd grade, 69.23% in 4th grade, and 100% in 5th grade, all above district and state results. English Language Arts was more mixed: grades 3 and 5 both scored 85.71%, well above district and state, but grade 4 ELA was 46.15%, above the district’s 42.03% yet below the state’s 53.87%. In 2025–2026, 4th grade social studies was 76.92%, above district and state, while 4th grade science was 53.85%, slightly above the state’s 53.46% and above the district’s 45.65%.
The school’s state ranking has declined from exceptional levels, falling from 98th percentile in 2023–2024 to 90th in 2024–2025 and 74th in 2025–2026, though it remains well above the district’s 44th percentile and 2-star rating. Because Endeavor Elementary has only 57 students, grade-level percentages are based on very small groups, so one or two students can shift results by many points. Overall, it offers strong math, several very high ELA and social studies results, and better-than-average absenteeism, but families should weigh the mixed ELA performance by grade, the recent ranking decline, and the limited multi-year data with caution.
