Summary:
Elementary schools in the Laona School District consist of a single campus: Robinson Elementary, located at 5216 Forest Ave in Laona, Wisconsin. It serves grades PK through 5 with an enrollment of 145, a student-teacher ratio of 12.6, per-student spending of $15,751, and a free/reduced lunch rate of 45.52%. The district is ranked 221st of 432 in Wisconsin — the 49th percentile — with a 2-star rating, and because Robinson Elementary is the district's only elementary school, its school-level and district-level elementary test scores are identical.
The clearest strength is 4th grade. In 2025–2026, 4th graders scored 85.71% proficient in social studies (20.20 points above the state), 71.43% in science (17.97 above), and 61.90% in math (9.03 above). Year over year, science climbed 33.33 points, social studies 23.81 points, and math 23.80 points. The school's overall rank rose from 861st of 1,061 (19th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024 to 581st of 1,039 (44th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026, and its average proficiency across reported tests moved from about 38.2% to about 53.4%.
Areas to watch include 5th grade, where both ELA and math sit at 36.36% proficient — 17.27 and 15.45 points below state — though both improved from 26.09% and 17.39% the prior year. Third grade math slipped from 43.48% to 37.50%, 17.25 points below state, while 3rd grade ELA at 50.00% is close to the state's 52.08%. Chronic absenteeism is 16.0%, better than the state's 17.3% but above the district's 12.2%. Because grade-level cohorts are small, a few students can move these percentages by several points, so year-to-year swings should be read with caution.
