Summary
Hmong American Immersion School is a PK–4 elementary school in the Appleton Area School District in Appleton, Wisconsin, where the district lists enrollment as 0 — an apparent data error rather than evidence that no children attend, since the school does report grade-level test results. It shares an address with Johnston Elementary and sits 0.02 miles away, suggesting the two operate alongside each other. In its only year of rank history, 2025–2026, the school placed 834th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools — 20th percentile, 1 star. The Appleton Area School District is ranked 253rd of 432, 41st percentile, 2 stars.
Results are unusually uneven by subject. Fourth-grade math is the clear bright spot: 54.55% proficient, compared with 46.81% in the district and 52.87% statewide. That is above every same-district nearby school — Johnston Elementary (52.63%), Berry Elementary (49.09%), McKinley Elementary (45.83%), Richmond Elementary (45.83%), Huntley Elementary (43.18%), Edison Elementary (37.5%), Horizons Elementary (29.63%) and Stephen Foster Elementary Charter (27.27%) — with only Westside Elementary in the Kimberly Area School District higher, at 70.11%. Third-grade math, at 50%, is close to the district's 51.1% but below the state's 54.75%. Reading and content-area results look different: fourth-grade English language arts is 27.27% (district 52.49%, state 53.87%), lower than every same-district nearby school. Fourth-grade science is 18.18% (district 48.61%, state 53.46%) and fourth-grade social studies is 45.45% (district 66.73%, state 65.51%) — both the lowest among nearby schools. Third-grade ELA is 33.33%, against 47.26% district and 52.08% state.
Two cautions matter. First, these cohorts are tiny: the grade-4 results are consistent with a class of 11 students, so one student changing status would move a score by roughly 9 points. Second, the school reports no free/reduced lunch percentage, student-teacher ratio, chronic absenteeism or per-student spending — those figures are unknown, not zero — so it is not possible to say whether outcomes reflect resources, attendance or other factors. Overall, Hmong American Immersion's rank is the lowest among ranked nearby schools and below its district's percentile, though co-located Johnston Elementary offers a useful comparison: Hmong's fourth-grade math is higher, while its fourth-grade ELA, science and social studies are lower.
