Summary

Wilder Elementary is a PK–5 school in Green Bay, Wisconsin, serving 413 students as part of the Green Bay Area Public School District. The district ranks 383 of 432 in Wisconsin (11th percentile, 1 star), and Wilder Elementary sits in a similar place statewide: 880 of 1,039 elementary schools in 2025–2026 (15th percentile, 1 star). About half its students (50.85% in 2024–2025) qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending is $15,175, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.7.

Attendance is the school's clearest strength. Chronic absenteeism of 12.9% in 2024–2025 is below the district's 27.3% and the state's 17.3%, and lower than Baird Elementary (20.6%), Nicolet Elementary Community School (27.4%), Eisenhower Elementary (27.3%), Danz Elementary (21.2%), and Sullivan Elementary (23.9%). Academics are a different story: 2025–2026 Forward Exam proficiency is below district and state in every tested grade and subject, from 5th grade math at 22.22% to 4th grade social studies at 43.33%. Among same-district neighbors, Wilder ranks above those four schools but below Baird Elementary, Martin Elementary, Webster Elementary, Aldo Leopold Community School K-8, and McAuliffe Elementary.

Subgroup results deserve attention. Wilder ranks in the bottom 10% statewide for low-socioeconomic-status students in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, with 0 stars — significant given that roughly half the school is low-income. Results for other groups have been low and uneven. Baird Elementary is a revealing comparison: it has higher poverty (63.55% free/reduced lunch) and worse attendance than Wilder, yet higher 2025–2026 grades 3–5 averages in both ELA and math. McAuliffe Elementary spends less per student ($13,854) and has larger classes (15.2 ratio) but posts roughly double Wilder's math proficiency. These comparisons suggest instruction and targeted support, especially for low-income students, are the key levers for improvement.
