Summary

Randolph Elementary is a PK–5 school of 195 students in the village of Randolph, Wisconsin — a small community on the Dodge/Columbia county line about 35 minutes northeast of Madison — and it is the only tested elementary building in the Randolph School District, so school-level and district-level test figures match here.

Randolph is in the middle of a multi-year climb. Its state rank has moved from the 34th percentile in 2016–17 to 49th in 2022–23, then up three straight years to 69th, 77th and 83rd percentile (2025–26), where it ranks 177th of 1,039 schools with 4 stars — the strongest standing in the decade shown. All eight 2025–26 Forward Exam results beat the state average, with the largest margins in 4th-grade science (84% vs. 53.5% statewide) and social studies (88% vs. 65.5%), plus 4th-grade math at 76% vs. 52.9%. Notably, students from low-income families rank above the school as a whole (87th vs. 83rd percentile), so the usual poverty-achievement gap isn't visible in this building's data.

Chronic absenteeism has dropped from 24.4% in 2020–21 to 8.3% in 2024–25 — roughly half the state rate of 17.3% and below the district's 14.6%. Randolph does this on $15,066 per student, the third-lowest figure among nearby comparison schools, with a student-teacher ratio of 11.1, also among the lowest. Among neighbors, it sits essentially level with Washington Elementary in Beaver Dam (84th percentile) and Cambria Friesland Elementary (83rd, but spending about $4,400 more per student), behind Prairie View Elementary and Fall River Elementary, and well ahead of the closest school, School for Agricultural and Environmental Studies in Waupun (31st percentile). One caution: with only about 25–31 students tested per grade, single-year grade-level numbers can swing several points, so the trend matters more than any one year.
