Summary

Oostburg Elementary is a public elementary school in Oostburg, Wisconsin, serving 469 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Oostburg School District, which is ranked 12th out of 426 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oostburg Elementary consistently ranks among the top 10-20% of Wisconsin elementary schools, with exceptional academic performance. The school's proficiency rates on the Forward Exam significantly exceed the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly in Mathematics, where 64.86% to 77.61% of students in grades 3-5 are proficient or better, well above the state averages. Oostburg Elementary also demonstrates strong performance across different student subgroups, including male students, White students, and students with low socioeconomic status, all of whom rank within the top 20% of their respective peer groups in the state.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Longfellow Elementary, Sheridan Elementary, and James Madison Elementary, Oostburg Elementary significantly outperforms them on academic measures. The only nearby school that can match or exceed Oostburg's performance is Kohler Elementary, which is also a high-performing school ranked within the top 10 in Wisconsin. Oostburg Elementary's success appears to be driven by a combination of factors, including the district's overall excellence, relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, and a lower percentage of students from low-income families compared to many of the surrounding schools.
