Summary:
Mineral Point Elementary is the only elementary school in the Mineral Point Unified School District in Wisconsin, serving grades PK–5 with 377 students, so it alone defines the elementary profile for this area. The district itself is ranked 131 of 432 districts, placing it at the 70th percentile with 4 stars. Because the school is the district's only elementary building, its results and the district's elementary results in this data are identical — there is no other local elementary school to compare it against.
Academically, the school performs above the state in most tested areas. In 2025-26 it was above the state in 7 of 8 reported subject-and-grade tests, with its biggest edges in science (68.18% vs. 53.46%), third grade ELA (66.04% vs. 52.08%), fourth grade social studies (78.79% vs. 65.51%), and fifth grade math (63.04% vs. 51.81%). Third grade math was essentially level with the state at 54.72% vs. 54.75%. Results in 2024-25 were even stronger — fourth grade science at 79.07%, fourth grade social studies at 88.37%, and fifth grade math at 74.55%. However, 7 of 8 tests declined in 2025-26, with the largest drops in fourth grade math (72.09% to 59.09%), fifth grade math (74.55% to 63.04%), and fourth grade science (79.07% to 68.18%). These are grade-level results, not the same students followed over time.
The school's ranking slipped from 203 of 1,044 (81st percentile, 4 stars) in 2024-25 to 348 of 1,039 (67th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025-26 — still above the middle, but no longer in the top fifth. Attendance is a clear strength: chronic absenteeism is 6.5%, below the district's 8.1% and far below the state's 17.3%. About 20.42% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $15,458, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.3. Overall, families get strong science and social studies results and good attendance, with recent softening in test scores to watch.
