Summary

Grewenow Elementary is a PK–5 school at 7714 20th Ave in Kenosha, Wisconsin, serving 310 students in the Kenosha School District — the smallest school among its nearby comparison set. In 2025–2026 it ranks 832nd of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools (20th percentile, 1 star), placing it in the bottom fifth statewide; the district itself ranks 340th of 432. Its ranking has slipped over the past decade, from the 52nd percentile in 2015–2016 to the low 20s today.

Proficiency is uneven. A simple average of Grewenow's eight reported 2025–2026 tests is about 38.6% proficient, versus roughly 47.0% for the district and 54.7% for the state. Fourth-grade math is a genuine strength at 56.67%, above both district and state. The sharpest weak spots are fifth-grade math (19.35%) and fourth-grade science (23.33%). Chronic absenteeism has improved markedly, from 42.1% in 2021–2022 to 24.9% in 2024–2025 — below the district's 27.6% but above the state's 17.3%, and well above higher-performing neighbors such as Whittier Elementary (9.4%) and Ruth Harman Academy (12.0%). Grewenow spends $16,039 per student, second-highest nearby, with a 12.9 student-teacher ratio.

Locally, Grewenow sits in the lower half of its same-district group but not at the bottom: it outranks Strange Elementary, Southport Elementary, Frank Elementary, and Brass Community School, while trailing Jeffery Elementary (79th percentile), Roosevelt Elementary (63rd), Lakeview K-8 Academy (57th), Ruth Harman Academy (55th), Whittier Elementary (36th), and Forest Park Elementary (28th). Its 68.39% free/reduced-lunch rate is high, though Southport Elementary has a nearly identical rate and ranks lower, while Roosevelt Elementary has a lower rate but ranks much higher — so poverty alone doesn't explain the gap. The most urgent warning signs are declining subgroup-effectiveness percentiles, with Hispanic students falling from 72 to 26, special education from 56 to 14, and low-SES from 48 to 28.
