Summary

Park Community Charter School is an elementary school in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, serving 256 students in grades PK–4 as part of the Kaukauna Area School District, a district that ranks in the top fifth of Wisconsin districts. The school has been a strong and steadily improving performer: it ranked 125th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2025–2026 (88th percentile, 4 stars), and its best recent year was 2024–2025, when it placed 88th of 1,044 (92nd percentile, 5 stars). That is a significant climb from the early 2020s, when it sat between the 62nd and 69th percentiles.

Park Community Charter scores above both its district and the state average in every tested subject and grade reported. Math is the standout, with 78.57% of 3rd graders and 75% of 4th graders proficient in 2025–2026, well ahead of district and state. Social studies was also a strength at 81.82%. Compared with nearby schools in its own district, Park outperformed Quinney Elementary and Haen Elementary in all reported 2025–2026 tested areas. Its closest academic peer is New Directions Learning Community, which ranked 127th statewide — essentially tied with Park's 125th — but scored higher in ELA, social studies, and science, while Park led in 3rd-grade math. Park also generally outperformed Westside Elementary, Little Chute Elementary, Johnston Elementary, and Flex Academy.

Attendance has improved dramatically: chronic absenteeism fell from 26.5% in 2021–2022 to 9.6% in 2024–2025, better than the district's 10.8% and the state's 17.3%, though Sunrise Elementary (2.9%) and New Directions (3.5%) set an even higher bar. The school is also notably effective with several student groups — special education students ranked in the 92nd percentile and low-income students in the 84th in 2025–2026. Resources look moderate rather than exceptional: $13,877 per student, a 14:1 student-teacher ratio, and a 28.52% free/reduced lunch rate. Notably, Park spends less than Haen and Quinney yet achieves higher proficiency, suggesting results come from school effectiveness rather than unusually high funding or very small classes.
