Elementary Schools in Green Lake School District

Summary:

The Green Lake School District has one standout elementary school, Green Lake Elementary, which consistently performs at a high level and is considered one of the top-performing elementary schools in Wisconsin.

Green Lake Elementary has a strong academic track record, with students significantly outperforming the state average on the Forward Exam in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. The school's 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and high statewide ranking (143 out of 1,061 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2023-2024) further demonstrate its excellence. Additionally, the school has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, compared to the state average.

While the school serves a diverse student population, with 35.53% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, its strong academic performance suggests it is effectively addressing the needs of all its students.
