Summary:
Elmwood School District in Wisconsin contains just one middle school — Elmwood Middle — serving grades 5–8 with 92 students at 213 S Scott St in Elmwood, WI. Since it is the only middle school in the district, there is no local peer school to compare it against, so the most meaningful benchmark is the state as a whole. The district overall ranks 160 of 432 districts in Wisconsin (63rd percentile, 3 stars), while the school’s own results sit well above that.
Elmwood Middle ranked 77 of 643 middle schools in 2025–2026 (88th percentile, 4 stars), after ranking 30 of 628 (95th percentile, 5 stars) in 2024–2025 and 45 of 641 (93rd percentile, 5 stars) in 2023–2024. In 2025–2026 it beat the state on 8 of 10 reported grade-subject tests, with standout results in 8th grade Social Studies (90% proficient vs. 64.63% statewide), 8th grade Science (85% vs. 51.86%), and both 7th grade Math and 7th grade ELA (79.17% each). The exceptions were 5th and 6th grade Mathematics, each at 50%, slightly below their state rates. In 2024–2025 the school beat the state on all 10 tests, averaging about 79.23% proficient against a state average of about 53.92%.
Engagement measures are a clear strength: a 0.0% dropout rate versus 1.1% statewide, and 5.4% chronic absenteeism versus 17.3% statewide and 6.2% in the district. About 29.35% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $14,135, and the student-teacher ratio is 12.4. With only 92 students across four grades, a single student can shift a grade-level percentage by several points, so the 2025–2026 slip from 5 stars to 4 should be read cautiously.
