Summary:
Random Lake School District contains a single elementary school, Random Lake Elementary, which serves grades PK–5 to 292 students at 605 Random Lake Rd in Random Lake, WI. Because it is the only elementary school in the district, there are no in-district peers to compare it against, and district-level test results are identical to the school's results in every grade and subject reported. About 35% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending is $13,053, and the student-teacher ratio is 14:1.
The strongest finding is attendance: chronic absenteeism at Random Lake Elementary was 3.7% in 2024–2025, well below the district's 4.4% and far below the state's 17.3%. Academically, 4th grade is the bright spot. In 2025–2026, 4th grade math proficiency reached 60%, above the state's 52.87% and up from 50% the year before. Fourth grade ELA was essentially at state level at 53.33% versus 53.87%, a large jump from 36.36% the prior year, and 4th grade social studies improved by 8.94 points, though at 56.67% it still trails the state's 65.51%.
Concerns remain. The school is rated 1 star for 2025–2026, ranking 769th of 1,039 schools at the 26th percentile, still below its 2023–2024 result of 2 stars and the 33rd percentile. The district is also rated 1 star, ranking 373rd of 432 at the 14th percentile. Fifth grade is the weakest tested grade, with both ELA and math at 30.77% proficient — roughly 21 to 23 points below state. Science slipped from 47.73% to 40%, now 13.46 points below the state's 53.46%. Overall, the school's proficiency average of 43.94% in 2025–2026 sits about 11 points below the state average of 54.75%.
