Summary:
Jackson, Wisconsin has exactly one school in this data, Jackson Elementary, an elementary school serving grades K-4 with 306 students in the West Bend School District, so families in Jackson have a single public elementary option in this list and no middle, high, or alternative school appears here. The district, West Bend School District, is ranked 125th of 432 Wisconsin districts, placing it in the 71st percentile with a 4-star rating.
For parents, the main standout is that Jackson Elementary is a 4-star school in each reported year, with statewide percentiles of 87 in 2023-2024, 83 in 2024-2025, and 76 in 2025-2026, still above its district's 71st percentile. Its chronic absenteeism rate is 1.0%, compared with 8.8% for West Bend School District and 17.3% for Wisconsin. On 2025-2026 Forward Exams, all six listed subject/grade scores are above the state average. Third grade is especially strong: 84.48% proficient in math and 75.86% in English Language Arts, far above district and state results. Fourth grade ELA and math are above state but below district averages. Science is 65.57%, 12.11 points above state, and social studies is 73.77%, near the district and 8.26 points above state.
The school also reports 306 students, a 26.8% free/reduced lunch rate, $16,855 per-student spending, and a 12.7:1 student-teacher ratio. The main watch items are a declining statewide rank percentile and weaker 4th grade ELA/math in 2025-2026; if last year's 3rd graders are this year's 4th graders, their proficiency fell, but cohort comparisons should be read cautiously. Overall, Jackson Elementary remains a strong choice by state and district comparisons, especially in 3rd grade math/ELA and chronic absenteeism.
