Summary:
The Palmyra-Eagle Area School District serves roughly 521 students across four schools — two elementary, one middle and one high — in the Palmyra and Eagle communities of southeastern Wisconsin. The district as a whole is ranked 356th of 432 in the state, placing it at the 18th percentile with 1 star, but school-level results vary sharply from building to building.
Eagle Elementary is the largest school, with 234 students, and has the district's lowest per-student spending at $18,944. Attendance is a bright spot: chronic absenteeism is 8.5%, well below the district's 12.5% and the state's 17.3%. Test results are mixed, with 4th-grade ELA and 3rd-grade math above state while 5th-grade ELA and math fell well below. Its rank has slipped from the 52nd percentile with 3 stars in 2023–2024 to the 33rd percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026.
Palmyra-Eagle High, with 165 students, graduates 93.0% of students, above the state's 92.0%, and has posted above-state results in Social Studies and Math ACT, though Science ACT stayed below state by double digits in both recent years. Palmyra-Eagle Middle is the most volatile, dropping from 74th percentile with 4 stars in 2023–2024 to 29th percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026; 7th- and 8th-grade ELA and math fell below state in 2025–2026, even as 8th-grade Social Studies stayed well above state. Palmyra Eagle Montessori School, the smallest at 26 students, has the lowest absenteeism (6.7%), lowest free/reduced lunch rate (26.92%) and highest per-student spending ($25,818), but no test or rank data here, so its academics cannot be judged.
