Summary
McAuliffe Elementary is a PK–5 school with 407 students in Green Bay, Wisconsin, serving families in the Green Bay Area Public School District. That district ranks 383rd of 432 districts in Wisconsin — the 11th percentile, 1 star — yet McAuliffe is a clear bright spot within it: in 2025–2026 it ranked 262nd of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools, the 75th percentile with 4 stars. That is not a one-year fluke. The school has been in the 67th–81st percentile in four of the last five years (80th in 2021–2022, 67th in 2022–2023, 71st in 2023–2024, 81st in 2024–2025), with a single dip to the 44th percentile in 2020–2021, when pandemic disruption affected schools everywhere.
On the 2025–2026 Forward Exam, McAuliffe scored above both district and state averages in every reported grade and subject. Averaging across its eight results, proficiency is about 67.4%, compared with roughly 40.1% for the district and 54.8% statewide. Math stands out: fifth-grade math reached 81.82% proficient — about 30 points above the state and 46 points above the district — while fourth-grade math was 70.91% and third-grade math 64.91%. Fourth-grade social studies was 74.55% (state: 65.51%) and science 60% (state: 53.46%). Among nearby schools, Webster Elementary is the closest competitor, ranking 477th at the 54th percentile; it edges McAuliffe only in third-grade ELA (58.82% vs. 57.89%) and third-grade math (70.59% vs. 64.91%).
Attendance is McAuliffe's most distinctive strength: chronic absenteeism was 6.5% in 2024–2025, versus 27.3% in the district and 17.3% statewide, and less than half the next-best nearby rate (Langlade Elementary at 12.3%). Notably, McAuliffe achieves this with fewer resources than its neighbors — $13,854 per student versus $15,175–$20,024 nearby, and a student-teacher ratio of 15.2, higher than every nearby school. Its free/reduced lunch rate of 33.91% is lower than all listed nearby schools. English language learners improved from the 26th percentile in 2018–2019 to the 68th in 2025–2026, while results for students with disabilities and low-income students vary from year to year.
