Summary

Longfellow Elementary is a PK–8 school at 1021 S 21st St in Milwaukee, serving 773 students in the Milwaukee School District — the largest same-district school among its nearby peers. Its 2025–26 state rank is 976th of 1,039 schools (6th percentile, 0 stars), and that position is strikingly stable: from 2015–16 through 2025–26 it has generally sat between the 6th and 10th percentile and never earned a star. The district ranks 418th of 432 statewide (3rd percentile). About 89.65% of students were eligible for free or reduced lunch in 2024–25; per-student spending reached $19,429, while the student–teacher ratio rose to 19.1 — the highest among nearby schools.

Academically, Longfellow averages 22.6% proficiency in ELA, 14.4% in math, 32.0% in social studies and 17.8% in science — an overall 20.1%, below the district's 24.9% and far below the state's 55.1%. Math and science are the weakest areas (grade 5 math 6.35%; grade 4 science 10.98%), while grade 8 ELA (33.33%) and grade 8 social studies (36.84%) are relative bright spots above district averages. Scores did improve from 2024–25 to 2025–26 in ELA, math and science. Longfellow outperforms Mitchell Elementary, Doerfler Elementary and Kagel Elementary in most subjects, is roughly comparable to Rogers Street Academy, and trails ALBA - Academia de Lenguaje y Bellas Artes, Greenfield Bilingual, Seeds of Health Elementary Program and especially Bruce Guadalupe (about 49.2%).

Chronic absenteeism is 43.0% — better than the district's 46.2% but far above the state's 17.3% and worse than most nearby schools, including Forest Home Elementary (32.9%) and Allen-Field Elementary (39.7%). ALBA, in the same district with similar poverty levels, has just 4.9%. Dropout is low at 0.6%. Subgroup rankings are a concern: low-income students rank in the 3rd percentile statewide, special education students in the 4th, and English learners in the 12th. The clearest opportunities appear to be attendance and engagement, math and science instruction, and learning from ALBA's practices.
