Summary

Haen Elementary is a grade 1–4 school in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, serving 323 students as part of the Kaukauna Area School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 488th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools — the 53rd percentile, or 3 stars — placing it near the middle of the state, while its district ranks 90th of 432 districts (79th percentile, 4 stars). The school's ranking has drifted down recently, from the 66th percentile in 2023–2024 to 59th in 2024–2025 and 53rd in 2025–2026.

Haen stands out locally for both the population it serves and the resources it receives. Its free/reduced lunch rate of 51.39% is the highest among nearby schools, about 12 percentage points above Little Chute Elementary (39.15%) and far above district peers such as Quinney Elementary (19.5%) and New Directions Learning Community (17.41%). Yet Haen also has the highest per-pupil spending ($15,878) and the lowest student–teacher ratio (11.7) in that comparison group, so it is not under-resourced. Chronic absenteeism is 11.7% — better than the state's 17.3% but above the district's 10.8%, and higher than every nearby school listed, from Sunrise Elementary (2.9%) to Janssen Elementary (5.9%).

On 2025–2026 state tests, Haen's proficiency was close to state averages in most subjects but below the Kaukauna district average in every tested subject and grade, and below Quinney Elementary, New Directions Learning Community, and Park Community Charter School. Results swing by grade and year, so trends matter more than any single year. The clearest strength is English learners, where Haen ranks in the 90th percentile statewide (5 stars); low-income students rank in the 63rd percentile (3 stars). Results for students with disabilities have slipped to the 34th percentile (2 stars), down from the 51st–57th range in earlier years.
