Summary

Hillcrest Elementary is a PK–5 school in Oneida, Wisconsin, serving 434 students in the Pulaski Community School District, and it ranks among the top quarter of elementary schools in the state. In 2025–2026 it placed 253rd of 1,039 elementary schools — the 76th percentile, with 4 stars — and scored above the Wisconsin state average in all eight reported Forward Exam areas, averaging about 67% proficient against roughly 55% statewide. That is close to the school's recent high of 79th percentile in 2018–2019, following a dip to 62nd in 2020–2021.

Hillcrest is the strongest nearby PK–5 school. Its results are broadly comparable to the higher-spending Howard-Suamico schools Forest Glen Elementary, Howard Elementary, and Meadowbrook Elementary, which ranked slightly higher in 2025–2026, and it clearly outperforms nearby Green Bay Area Public School District schools such as Chappell Elementary, Jackson Elementary, MacArthur Elementary, Kennedy Elementary, and King Elementary. Hillcrest does this with the lowest reported per-pupil spending among nearby schools ($12,591) and one of the larger classes (15.3 students per teacher). Chronic absenteeism is a standout strength at 7.8%, below the district's 11.4% and far below the state's 17.3%.

Two areas are worth watching. Grade 5 math proficiency was 54.1%, below the district's 63.8% and well below the school's own 71.21% in grade 4 math, though still above the state. Effectiveness for students with disabilities dropped from the 80th percentile in 2023–2024 to about the 48th–49th percentile in the last two years, and effectiveness for economically disadvantaged students sits around the 47th–48th percentile — both below the school's overall 76th-percentile standing.
