Summary

Altoona Intermediate is a public school in the Altoona School District serving 278 students in grades 4–5 at 1903 Bartlett Ave in Altoona, Wisconsin, a small community next to Eau Claire. The district is rated 4 stars and ranks 124th of 432 Wisconsin districts, and the school itself rebounded strongly in 2025–2026 to 325th of 1,039 schools (69th percentile, 3 stars) after a dip to 45th percentile and 2 stars the year before.

Academically, Altoona Intermediate scored above the Wisconsin state average in every reported subject and grade in 2025–2026. The standout is 4th-grade math at 73.64% proficient versus 52.87% statewide — more than 20 points higher — while 4th-grade science (70.91% vs 53.46%) and social studies (77.27% vs 65.51%) are also well above state. Fourth-grade ELA came in at 60% versus 53.87% statewide, and 5th-grade ELA (53.85%) and math (55.38%) were slightly above state, though 5th-grade math slipped from 62.31% the prior year. Among nearby schools, the 4th-grade math score trails only Meadowview Elementary, and the science score is exceeded only by Flynn Elementary.

Attendance is a long-running strength: chronic absenteeism was 5.4% in 2024–2025, versus 9.5% for the district and 17.3% statewide, and only Chippewa Valley Montessori Charter School was lower nearby. About 35.61% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — far below Longfellow Elementary (64.83%), Northwoods Elementary (51.97%), and Flynn (48.48%), and similar to Altoona Elementary (33.51%). The school spends less per student ($13,502) than every nearby school listed and has a higher student-teacher ratio (13.6) than most, yet still produces above-state results. Students with disabilities and low-income students rank around the 65th percentile, with broad improvement across groups, and the school remains competitive though Manz Elementary and Meadowview rank higher overall. The main caveat is year-to-year volatility from small grade-level cohorts.
