Ettrick Elementary

60^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,039 Wisconsin Elementary Schools

Better than 94% of Wisconsin elementary schools

Summary

Ettrick Elementary is a small PK–5 school with 124 students in the rural village of Ettrick, Wisconsin, serving families as part of the Galesville-Ettrick-Trempealeau School District, and it is currently the standout school in its area. In 2025–2026 it ranked 60th of 1,039 elementary schools statewide — the 94th percentile, 5 stars. That is a major improvement from earlier years, including a 41st-percentile, 2-star showing in 2018–2019 and a 57th-percentile, 3-star result in 2023–2024.

Test results for 2025–2026 were strong across most subjects. Grade 4 students scored 82.35% proficient in both ELA and math, 94.12% in social studies, and 94.12% in science, while grade 5 math reached 93.75%. Ettrick posted the highest proficiency among nearby schools in grade 4 ELA, grade 5 ELA, grade 4 math, grade 5 math, grade 4 social studies, and grade 4 science. Its statewide rank sits far ahead of Viking Elementary and Trempealeau Elementary (both 62nd percentile), Prairie View Elementary (61st), Galesville Elementary (52nd), and Melrose-Mindoro Elementary (44th). The one relative soft spot is grade 3 math, where 60% proficiency was slightly below the district's 61.02% and a few nearby schools, though still above the state's 54.75%.

Attendance is a major differentiator: chronic absenteeism was just 1.9% in 2024–2025, down from 11.3% in 2021–2022, compared with 2.8% district-wide and 17.3% statewide. About 27.42% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch — moderate for the region — and the student–teacher ratio is a favorable 11.8. Because enrollment is small, one class can swing school-wide percentages, as when science proficiency moved from 44.44% in 2024–2025 to 94.12% in 2025–2026, so year-to-year changes are best read with some caution.
