The city of Union Grove, Wisconsin is home to three schools: two elementary schools (Union Grove Elementary and Yorkville Elementary) and one high school (Union Grove High). These schools serve students across the Union Grove Union High School School District, the Union Grove J1 School District, and the Yorkville J2 School District.
Among the three schools, Yorkville Elementary stands out as a top performer, consistently exceeding state and district averages on standardized test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. In the 2024-2025 school year, 84.62% of 3rd graders at Yorkville Elementary were proficient or better in ELA, compared to just 52.14% statewide. The school also boasts a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 23.74% and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.8. Union Grove Elementary also demonstrates strong academic performance, with test scores exceeding state and district averages across multiple grade levels and subjects, and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
In contrast, Union Grove High lags behind the elementary schools, scoring below the state average on many test metrics. The school's four-year graduation rate of 91.0% is above the state average, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the high school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, dropping from 213 in 2024-2025 to 285 in 2023-2024, suggesting a potential decline in performance over time.
