Summary

King Elementary is a public elementary school located in Green Bay, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 305. The school is part of the Green Bay Area Public School District, which is ranked 368 out of 426 districts in Wisconsin and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

King Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Wisconsin elementary schools, with a ranking between 729 and 887 out of over 1,000 schools in the state over the past 10 years. The school's performance on the Forward Exam, Wisconsin's standardized test, is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 47.83% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 52.14% and the district average of 39.12%. King Elementary's performance is particularly low in mathematics, with only 20.83% of 5th graders proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 52.58% and the district average of 39.49%. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.7% to 31.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While the nearby schools within the Green Bay Area Public School District, such as Jackson Elementary, Keller Elementary, and Chappell Elementary, also perform poorly on academic measures and have high percentages of students from low-income backgrounds, some schools outside the district, such as Valley View Elementary in the Ashwaubenon School District and Hillcrest Elementary in the Pulaski Community School District, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance and lower rates of poverty.

There are fabulous experienced teachers in the Green Bay district and especially at King Elementary. Our children all had a wonderful first grade teacher who came early before school to do enrichment activities with them. My son was in the gifted and talented program and was challenged beyond his grade level in Math. With a terrific parent group, there were tons of activities for the kids in all areas of both academics and extra curriculars. Our favorite is the spring running club where kids and parents meet together after school to train for a 10K. My third grader ran a 10K because of King Elementary School! Close Quote

I've had three children attend King Elementary and would highly recommend this school to any parent for their students. There is long-term, dedicated staff who have provided my children a great educational foundation. There is an active parent group that enhances the experience for the students and families with events throughout the school year. King Elementary has prepared my children well for middle school and high school. Close Quote
