Summary:
The Union Grove J1 School District in Wisconsin contains just one school: Union Grove Elementary, which serves about 886 students in grades PK–8. Because it is the district's only school, the district and school results are identical. The district ranks 100th of 432 Wisconsin districts — the 77th percentile — and earns 4 stars. The school has held 4 stars in every reported year from 2023–2024 through 2025–2026, ranking 281st of 1,039 schools in 2025–2026, 230th of 1,044 in 2024–2025, and 291st of 1,061 in 2023–2024.
Academically, Union Grove Elementary outperformed the Wisconsin state average in every reported Forward Exam subject and grade in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026 — all 32 school-versus-state comparisons. Mathematics is the standout: the school averaged 68.8% proficiency in 2024–2025 and 67.0% in 2025–2026, versus state averages of 53.9% and 53.7%, a gap of roughly 13–15 percentage points. Fourth grade is strong across subjects, with 4th-grade social studies reaching 87.88% in 2025–2026 against the state's 65.51%. Social studies posted the biggest year-over-year gain, rising from 72.6% to 78.7%. Only math and science dipped slightly, by 1.8 points each, while still sitting well above state levels.
Attendance is a major strength: chronic absenteeism is 9.6% versus 17.3% statewide — about 1 in 10 students compared with roughly 1 in 6 — and the dropout rate is 0.5% against the state's 1.1%. About 28.22% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $13,018, and the student-teacher ratio is 15.6. The narrowest margins over the state appeared in 8th-grade social studies (63% vs. 62.51%) and 5th-grade English Language Arts, making those the relative areas to watch.
