Summary

Pittsville Elementary is a PK–8 public school in Pittsville, WI, serving 357 students as part of the Pittsville School District in a small central Wisconsin community. Its 2025–2026 rank is 592 of 1039 Wisconsin schools — 43rd percentile, 2 stars — down from 303 of 1061 (71st percentile, 4 stars) in 2023–2024. The district ranks 250 of 432 (42nd percentile, 2 stars). Enrollment is 357; free/reduced lunch was 46.22% in 2024–2025; per-student spending was $16,581; and the student-teacher ratio was 11.7. Attendance is a strength: chronic absenteeism was 8.5%, below the district’s 9.8% and state’s 17.3%, and dropout was 0.0%.

In 2025–2026 Forward Exam results, math is generally stronger than English Language Arts, but grade-level differences are sharp. Standouts include grade 5 math (68.97, +17.16 vs. state), grade 6 math (61.76, +8.16), grade 7 ELA (60.61, +5.28), grade 3 math (60.00, +5.25), and grade 6 ELA (58.82, +3.87). Weak spots include grade 5 ELA (34.48, -19.15), grade 4 math (35.90, -16.97), grade 4 ELA (43.59, -10.28), grade 8 social studies (55.26, -9.37), and grade 4 science (46.15, -7.31). Compared with nearby schools, the school is mid-tier: it generally trails Nasonville Elementary, Auburndale Elementary, Washington Elementary, and Madison Elementary, but compares favorably with Central Oaks Academy, Mead Elementary, and Humke Elementary in many math areas. Comparisons with Port Edwards Educational Heuer Elementary School and Howe Elementary are mixed.

Subgroup results show a split picture. Low-socioeconomic-status students ranked 273 of 848 (68th percentile, 3 stars), higher than the school overall, while special education students ranked 640 of 791 (19th percentile, 1 star), a clear weakness. Female and male students both declined and are now both at the 43rd percentile. Resources are not an obvious limiting factor: the school spends $16,581 per student and has an 11.7 student-teacher ratio, yet it ranks below some nearby schools that spend less. Attendance and dropout prevention are genuine strengths, math has bright spots in grades 5–7, and the main challenges are the decline since 2023–2024, grades 4–5 ELA, grade 4 math/science, grade 8 social studies, and special education performance.
