Summary
Bay Harbor Elementary is a PK–4 school in Suamico, Wisconsin, serving 344 students in the Howard-Suamico School District, a district that ranks 61st of 432 Wisconsin districts (86th percentile, 4 stars). Bay Harbor stands out even within it: in 2025–2026 it ranks 95th of 1,039 elementary schools statewide, at the 91st percentile with 5 stars.
Among same-district elementary schools, Bay Harbor has the highest statewide rank percentile — ahead of Forest Glen Elementary (82), Howard Elementary (81), Meadowbrook Elementary (78), and Suamico Elementary (78). Its 4th grade results are the clearest strength. In 2025–2026, Bay Harbor posted the highest 4th grade proficiency rate among nearby schools in every tested subject: 80.77% in English language arts, 75% in math, 88.24% in social studies, and 82.69% in science — all well above state averages. The science gain, from 61.76% the year before to 82.69%, was one of the biggest jumps in the data. Bay Harbor also outranks nearby schools outside its district, including Hillcrest Elementary (76th percentile) and Green Bay Area Public School District schools like Chappell Elementary (40th percentile), Lincoln Elementary, and Elmore Elementary, which generally fall in the 17th–21st percentile range — though those Green Bay schools serve much higher poverty rates, so that comparison is not apples-to-apples.
Two areas to watch: 3rd grade math, where Bay Harbor's 64.79% is above the state's 54.75% but below the district's 68.75% and behind Meadowbrook, Forest Glen, and Howard; and chronic absenteeism at 11.9% in 2024–2025, better than the state's 17.3% but above the district's 9.7% and above Suamico, Forest Glen, and Meadowbrook. Subgroup results are unusually strong — low-income students rank in the 96th percentile statewide, special education students in the 90th, and male students in the 95th. With 20.35% of students receiving free/reduced lunch, $15,120 in per-student spending, and an 11:1 student-teacher ratio, Bay Harbor achieves strong results without the lowest poverty or the highest spending among its peers.
