Summary:
Wild Rose Elementary is the only elementary school in the Wild Rose School District, serving 276 students in grades PK–5 in Wild Rose, Wisconsin. Because it is the sole elementary school in the district, there are no in-district comparisons to make; its results are best read against state averages and its own recent history. The district as a whole is ranked 281st of 432 in Wisconsin, in the 35th percentile with 2 stars.
The school posted an unusually strong 2024–25, ranking 234th of 1,044 schools — the 78th percentile with 4 stars — and scoring above the state average in every reported Forward Exam subject, often by double digits. Social studies stood out at 82.05% proficient versus the state's 63.65%, and grade 4 science reached 74.36% versus 50.83%. In 2025–26 results moderated but remained above state in six of eight reported tests: the school ranked 435th of 1,039 (58th percentile, 3 stars), nearly identical to its 2023–24 rank of 434th of 1,061. Grade 3 ELA was a bright spot at 69.05%, 16.97 points above the state. All reported test scores are exact percentages; none were suppressed.
The clearest area to watch is grade 4 in 2025–26, where ELA (51.02%) and mathematics (46.94%) both fell below state averages, and grade 4 science declined sharply from the prior year even while staying above state. Chronic absenteeism is a major strength: 6.9% at the school versus 9.5% districtwide and 17.3% statewide. With 47.1% of students eligible for free/reduced-price lunch, a favorable 11.6:1 student-teacher ratio, and $13,985 in per-student spending, the school serves a substantial economically disadvantaged population while generally exceeding state proficiency averages.
