Summary:
Menomonee Falls School District serves roughly 3,876 students across six schools in a suburban Wisconsin community, spanning grades PK through 12 with four elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The district is rated 69th of 432 districts statewide — the 84th percentile with 4 stars — and every currently ranked school also earns 4 stars, making this a consistently high-performing district. Enrollment is concentrated at the high school (32.5% of students) and middle school (20.7%), while the four elementaries together enroll 46.7%.
Elementary families should note the district divides its elementaries into PK–2 early learning campuses and 3–5 upper campuses. Since state testing begins in 3rd grade, Benjamin Franklin Elementary and Early Learning Center and Shady Lane Elementary have no recent test data, though Shady Lane posts the district's lowest chronic absenteeism at 9.5% and lowest FRPL rate at 11.28%, while Benjamin Franklin has the highest per-student spending at $15,227. Among tested elementaries, Valley View Elementary stands out: 86th percentile, the district's top average proficiency at 72.2%, and three straight years of improvement. Riverside Elementary (74th percentile) shows excellent 5th grade reading and math results but some 3rd and 4th grade scores below district averages.
North Middle ranks 142 of 643 (78th percentile) and improved from 3 stars in 2023–24 to 4 stars since, with the district's highest single proficiency score of 80.74% in 8th grade social studies. Menomonee Falls High (85th percentile) achieves a 98.4% graduation rate and 0.3% dropout rate, though its tested subjects all declined slightly year over year. Chronic absenteeism ranges from 9.5% to 11.3% across all six schools — every one well below the state's 17.3%.
