Summary

King Elementary is a PK–5 neighborhood school at 1601 Dancing Dunes Dr on Green Bay's west side, serving 288 students — about 45% of them economically disadvantaged — as one of six Green Bay Area Public School District elementaries in this comparison. It ranks 729th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementaries (30th percentile, 1 star), which places it in the bottom third of the state but well above its own district's 11th percentile.

Attendance is King's clearest strength: chronic absenteeism of 17.1% essentially matches the state average (17.3%) and runs 10 points below its district. Only Chappell Elementary (11.0%) and MacArthur Elementary (13.9%) do better locally, while Jackson Elementary, Kennedy Elementary and Beaumont Elementary trail. Third grade reading (57.5% proficient) is the highest of any district school here, and 4th grade science (54.5%) just edges the state. King achieves this while spending $14,766 per student — the least among its district peers and roughly $5,500 less than Beaumont or MacArthur — with the largest classes in the group (14.3:1).

The weaknesses are concentrated in the upper grades: 5th grade math (20.5%) and 5th grade reading (25.6%) sit far below state levels, though records show this group has tested low since 3rd grade, and a single grade holds only about 35–50 students, so year-to-year swings are noisy. Gaps by gender (female students 42nd percentile, male students 25th) and for low-income students (25th percentile) are the largest equity concerns. Overall, King is a modest 1-star school that is quietly outperforming its district peers and neighbors — strongest in early reading and attendance.

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
