Summary

Janssen Elementary is a PK–4 school in Combined Locks, WI, serving 339 students in the Kimberly Area School District, a highly ranked district (38th of 432 statewide, 91st percentile). Janssen had a breakout 2025–26 year, ranking 99th of 1,039 elementary schools statewide — the 90th percentile with 5 stars. That is a big jump from 260th of 1,044 (75th percentile, 4 stars) in 2024–25 and 445th of 1,075 (59th percentile, 3 stars) in 2015–16. Among nearby schools with 2025–26 rankings, Janssen leads Park Community Charter School (125), New Directions Learning Community (127), Flex Academy (187), Sunrise Elementary (215), Westside Elementary (267), Quinney Elementary (314), Haen Elementary (488), Little Chute Elementary (489), and Johnston Elementary (728).

On the 2025–26 Forward Exam, Janssen scored above both its district and the state in most tested areas. Its strongest results are 3rd grade ELA (87.14%) and 3rd grade math (82.86%), far above state averages (52.08% and 54.75%). Fourth grade is more mixed: math and social studies are slightly below district averages but still well above state averages. Janssen outperformed Sunrise, Westside, Johnston, Flex Academy, Haen, Little Chute Elementary, and Quinney in every tested subject and grade; against Park Community and New Directions, results were mixed. Chronic absenteeism is a clear strength at 5.9% in 2024–25, versus 8.1% in the district and 17.3% statewide.

Subgroup results point to broad effectiveness: male students rank in the 93rd percentile (5 stars), white students 89th, special education students 89th (up from the 34th percentile in 2023–24), female students 86th, and low-socioeconomic students 77th (up from 41st). Hispanic students rank in the 35th percentile (2 stars), based on a single year, which is worth monitoring — as are the mixed 4th grade results. Janssen spends $12,713 per student with a 13.1 student-teacher ratio, less than Johnston, Haen, Park Community, Little Chute Elementary, and Quinney, yet produces stronger outcomes.
