Summary

Traeger Elementary is a PK–5 school with 423 students in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, serving families in the Oshkosh Area School District. It is one of the strongest schools in its district: the district as a whole ranks 335th of 432 in Wisconsin (22nd percentile, 1 star), while Traeger Elementary ranked 239th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 77th percentile, with 4 stars.

In 2025–2026, Traeger scored above the district and state in every reported subject and grade. Its margins over the state range from about +6.9 points in 5th grade ELA to +21.2 points in 4th grade science, and its margins over the district range from roughly +14.7 to +30.4 points. Among nearby Oshkosh elementaries, only Oakwood Elementary (91st percentile) ranks higher overall, and Traeger actually beats Oakwood in 4th grade math (71.62% vs 66.67%) and 4th grade science (74.67% vs 65.22%). Most other nearby schools sit far lower — Lakeside Elementary at the 31st percentile, Franklin Elementary at the 24th, Shapiro STEM Academy at the 26th, and Roosevelt Elementary at the 15th.

Attendance is a standout strength: Traeger's 2024–2025 chronic absenteeism rate was 4.5%, compared with 16.9% for the district and 17.3% statewide. Only Oakwood was lower, at 2.9%. About 26.71% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch, a moderate rate well below many nearby schools but higher than Oakwood's 14.66%. Spending ($15,563 per student) and the student-teacher ratio (13.5) are mid-pack, so results don't appear to come from unusually small classes or high spending. Subgroup effectiveness is generally strong and improving — highest for male students (84th percentile) and English Language Learners (77th) — while low-SES (55th) and special education (63rd) remain below the schoolwide profile. After dipping to the 64th–66th percentile in 2022–2024, Traeger rebounded to the 77th in 2025–2026.
