Summary

Parkview Elementary is a PK–5 school with 504 students in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, part of the Cedarburg School District in a suburban community north of Milwaukee. In 2025–2026 it ranked #4 of 1,039 elementary schools statewide, earning 5 stars and a 100th percentile rating, and it has stayed in the top 6 every year since 2020–2021 — sustained performance, not a one-year spike.

Scores back that up. Across the eight reported 2025–2026 Forward Exam results, Parkview's average proficiency was about 90.2%, versus about 87.4% for the district and about 54.8% for the state. Standouts include 95.24% in 4th-grade math and 95.24% in 4th-grade social studies, 91.03% in 5th-grade math, 90.48% in 4th-grade ELA, and 88.89% in 4th-grade science. Parkview outscored the district on all eight exams and ranked higher than every nearby school listed, including Westlawn (#11), Thorson (#16), Oriole Lane (#25), and Kennedy (#28). The exceptions are narrow: Westlawn ties it in 4th-grade ELA and social studies, Thorson edges it in 5th-grade ELA (90.00 vs. 88.46), and a few 3rd-grade results at Oriole Lane, Kennedy, and Donges Bay run slightly higher. Chronic absenteeism is a bigger differentiator: 2.0% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 6.0% and the state's 17.3%, and the lowest among the nearby schools — down from 7.9% in 2021–2022.

Parkview also ranks among Wisconsin's top schools for specific student groups: special education students were #3 of 791 statewide in 2025–2026 and #1 of 802 in 2024–2025, and low-income students were #28 of 870 in 2024–2025. It does this with mid-range spending ($13,277 per student in 2024–2025) and a student–teacher ratio of 15.9, higher than several nearby schools. In a district already ranked #4 of 432 in Wisconsin, Parkview is the top performer in this comparison set.
