Summary

Leonardo da Vinci School for Gifted Learners is a K–8 school with 334 students in Green Bay, WI, part of the Green Bay Area Public School District, and it stands out as the 2nd-ranked elementary school in Wisconsin in 2025–2026 even though its district ranks in the bottom 11% of the state.

That contrast is dramatic. Leonardo earned 5 stars and a 100th-percentile ranking, with 2025–2026 proficiency rates of 80%–100% in English Language Arts, 90%–100% in Mathematics, 100% in Social Studies, and 95.92%–97.5% in Science. Nearby same-district comparisons are much lower: Aldo Leopold Community School K-8 is ranked 369th of 1,039 with 3 stars, and Webster Elementary is 477th with 3 stars. Leonardo’s lowest ELA and math grade-level rates still exceeded those nearby schools’ highest rates. Chronic absenteeism was 3.3%, versus 27.3% districtwide and 17.3% statewide, and lower than every listed nearby school. Its reported student groups all earned 5 stars, and the low-SES subgroup ranked as high as 1st of 870 statewide—evidence of strong school effectiveness, not a statement about students.

Leonardo also achieves these results with relatively modest resources: $13,908 per student and a 14.9 student-teacher ratio, compared with higher spending and lower ratios at most nearby schools. Its free/reduced lunch rate is 14.67%, far below many nearby schools, and it is explicitly a gifted-learner school. That specialized context helps explain why comparisons to neighborhood schools should be read as descriptive, not proof that one model is universally better. The main exception is dropout: 2.3% in 2024–2025, slightly above the district’s 2.0% and the state’s 1.1%, though prior years were mostly 0.0%–1.1%. Overall, Leonardo is a top-tier Wisconsin school with exceptional proficiency, attendance, and subgroup performance within a gifted/selective setting.
