Summary

MacArthur Elementary is a PK–5 school at 1331 Hobart Dr on Green Bay’s west side, serving 223 students, and it stands out as a middle-of-the-state school within the Green Bay Area Public School District. The district ranks 383rd of 432 Wisconsin districts (11th percentile, 1 star), while MacArthur ranks 526th of 1,039 state elementary schools in 2025–26 (49th percentile, 2 stars)—roughly the state’s middle and far above its own district’s standing. About 56.5% of students are economically disadvantaged, down from 62.95% the prior year. Per-pupil spending is $20,258, and the student-teacher ratio is 10.6.

On the 2025–26 Forward Exam, MacArthur beats the district on all eight tested measures by an average of about 15.6 percentage points. Its combined proficiency is 55.7%, essentially at the state average (54.8%) and well above the district average (40.1%). It outperforms nearby district schools such as Jackson Elementary, Chappell Elementary, Beaumont Elementary, Lincoln Elementary, Kennedy Elementary, and King Elementary on most measures. The closest comparison is Kennedy Elementary, 0.7 miles away, which serves a higher share of low-income students but posts combined proficiency of 32.8% versus MacArthur’s 55.7%. MacArthur also rivals Valley View Elementary in Ashwaubenon School District in raw proficiency while serving a higher share of low-income students.

Attendance is MacArthur’s clearest success: chronic absenteeism fell from 30.7% in 2020–21 to 13.9% in 2024–25, about half the district rate and below the state rate. Math is a strength—MacArthur exceeded the state in all three math grades in 2024–25 and in two of three in 2025–26, with 4th-grade math at 65%. Third-grade ELA has been below the state in three of the last four years. Special education is the weakest area, and the school’s rank has softened from a 70th-percentile peak in 2021–22 to 49th in 2025–26. With only 223 students, year-to-year swings can be noisy, but the multi-year picture is a school outperforming most of its district peers, especially in attendance and math.
