Summary

Evans Elementary is a PK–5 school in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, serving 279 students as part of the Fond du Lac School District, which ranks mid-pack statewide at 226th of 432. Evans ranks 560th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 46th percentile with 2 stars — essentially at the district average (48th percentile). Among 11 nearby schools, Evans sits fifth of eleven. It outperforms higher-poverty neighbors such as Chegwin Elementary, Riverside Elementary and Parkside Elementary, but trails Waters Elementary, Roberts Elementary and Rosenow Elementary, and is far behind Lakeshore Elementary, which ranks 99th percentile with 5 stars. The school's longer trend rose from the 26th percentile in 2018–2019 to a peak of 68th in 2022–2023, then declined to 61st, 56th, 44th and 46th.

The clearest pattern is by grade level. Evans's 3rd and 5th grades score well above district and state in both reading and math — 5th grade math reached 76.32 — and rank among the top nearby results behind only Lakeshore. Fourth grade is the weak spot: 33.33 in ELA and 42.22 in math, both below district and state, along with below-average 4th grade social studies and science. That one grade level likely holds the school's overall ranking down. Chronic absenteeism was 16.4% in 2024–2025, better than the district's 18.2% and the state's 17.3%, but higher than most nearby schools and up from 12.9% the previous year.

Evans serves a relatively high-need population: 65.59% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, and per-student spending was $18,823 with a low student-teacher ratio of 11.8 — more resource-intensive than most nearby schools. Yet outcomes remain mid-pack, which may reflect targeted support for high needs rather than a resource shortage. In 2025–2026, special education and low-income students ranked above the school's overall percentile, though some subgroup results have fluctuated in recent years. Overall, Evans is a middle-tier school with real strengths in 3rd and 5th grades, a clear 4th grade weakness, and room to improve attendance consistency.
