Summary

Lakeview Elementary is a K–4 school in Neenah, Wisconsin, serving 317 students as part of the Neenah Joint School District. It is a standout: Lakeview ranks 77th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2025–26 — the 93rd percentile, earning 5 stars — while its district ranks 139th of 432 districts (68th percentile, 3 stars). Lakeview has stayed in the top 10% of the state for years, holding 5 stars in each of the past five school years.

Test scores are above district and state averages in every listed subject and grade. In 2025–26, 4th graders reached 84.85% proficiency in math, 87.88% in social studies, and 78.79% in science, with 4th grade ELA at 80.30%. Third grade ELA (64.06%) and math (75.00%) softened compared with the prior two years but remain above district and state levels. Among nearby schools, Lakeview outranks ACE Alliance Charter Elementary (88th percentile, 4 stars), Tullar Elementary, Coolidge Elementary, Spring Road Elementary, Horace Mann Elementary, and Taft Elementary, and it is clearly stronger in 4th grade math than ACE (84.85% vs. 64.29%). Chronic absenteeism is exceptionally low at 3.4%, versus 13.1% districtwide and 17.3% statewide, and the lowest among nearby schools.

Lakeview serves a relatively lower-poverty population — 14.83% free/reduced lunch — with per-student spending of $13,084 and a student-teacher ratio of 15.5. Notably, it spends less than most nearby Neenah schools and all nearby Menasha Joint School District schools while outperforming nearly all of them. Subgroup performance is strong: in 2025–26, female students ranked in the 96th percentile and low-SES students in the 82nd, though ranks for special education and low-SES students eased from 2024–25. The main watch items are the 3rd grade dip and those subgroup shifts.
