Summary:
The Owen-Withee School District in Wisconsin contains a single elementary school, Owen-Withee Elementary, which serves students in grades PK–5 with an enrollment of 221.
Because there is only one elementary school in the district, there is no in-district peer to compare it against, so the most useful comparisons are to the district overall and to Wisconsin state averages. Owen-Withee Elementary stands out most clearly for attendance: its chronic absenteeism rate was 6.9%, less than half of both the district's 14.1% and the statewide 17.3%. That is notable given that 55.2% of students were eligible for free or reduced lunch. The school also has been rated 2 stars in each of the last three years, landing in the 41st, 36th, and 41st percentiles among Wisconsin elementary schools, which is stronger than the Owen-Withee School District's overall 1-star, 15th-percentile rating. In 2025–2026, 4th grade ELA proficiency was 62.16% (above the state's 53.87%) and 4th grade Social Studies was 67.57% (above the state's 65.51%). In 2024–2025, 5th grade math reached 70.37%, well above the state's 52.58%.
Results are uneven, however. In 2025–2026, 5th grade ELA and Math were both 44.44%, and 4th grade Science was 45.95%, all below state averages. Cohort tracking shows one group improving dramatically in ELA, from 32.5% as 3rd graders in 2024–2025 to 62.16% as 4th graders in 2025–2026, while the next cohort slipped in 5th grade. Science moved from 53.57% (above the state's 50.83%) to 45.95% (below the state's 53.46%), though these are different cohorts. Per-student spending was $16,588 and the student-teacher ratio was 11.1; no comparison data is provided, so these figures are descriptive only. Overall, the school remains a 2-star, roughly 41st-percentile elementary with strong attendance and clear subject-level variation.
