Summary

Sandy Slope Elementary School is a K–5 school in Appleton, Wisconsin, part of the Appleton Area School District, and it stands out as one of the strongest elementary schools in its district. Enrollment figures for the school were not available in the data reviewed, so no student count can be reported here.

For 2025–2026, Sandy Slope ranks 183rd of 1,039 Wisconsin schools — the 82nd percentile, with a 4-star rating.

Its 5th-grade math score is the highest among nearby same-district schools, ahead of Montessori (77.78) and Classical (76.67).
