Summary:
Sharon, Wisconsin has just one public school: Sharon Community, a PK–8 elementary at 104 E School St serving about 197 students. It is the only school in the single-school Sharon J11 School District, which means every district-level figure in this data is also the school-level figure — there is no district-versus-school gap to read. Because the building ends at grade 8, students move on to high school outside the district after eighth grade.
Academically, Sharon Community performs above the Wisconsin average in most subjects. Reading is the clear standout: students beat the state in every grade 3–8 in both of the last two years, averaging 68.3% proficient in 2025–2026 against 54.0% statewide, with fourth grade at 82.35% and eighth grade at 77.78%. Math averaged 57.7% versus 53.7% statewide, and social studies 71.4% versus 65.1%. Chronic absenteeism is 1.1% against a 17.3% state rate. The school spends $17,280 per student, has an 11.5:1 student–teacher ratio, and 58.4% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Statewide it ranked 390th of 1,039 schools (62nd percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026, up from 538th of 1,044 the year before.
Two weak spots repeat across both years and are the clearest improvement targets: fifth-grade math, at 16.67% proficient versus the state's 51.81%, and fourth-grade science, at 41.18% and 37.50% — both below state. Keep in mind that with roughly 15–20 students tested per grade, a single child can move a result by more than 5 points, so one-year swings deserve caution. The most trustworthy signals are the ones that repeat: strong reading in every grade, and fourth-grade math holding near 88% both years.
