Summary

Prairie Ridge Intermediate is a grades 3–5 school with 505 students in Reedsburg, WI, part of the Reedsburg School District. In 2025–26 it ranked 530th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools—49th percentile, 2 stars—about average statewide and above the district’s 36th percentile. Its recent history shows a mild recovery from 2020–22 lows. Academically, math and science are relative strengths, while English language arts is a relative weakness. In 2025–26, 4th grade math was a standout at 70.25% proficient, and 4th grade science was 63.92%, both above state averages and near the top among nearby schools. But 5th grade ELA (41.72%) and 5th grade math (46.01%) were below state and most nearby schools, and 3rd grade ELA (44.97%) also trailed the state.

Attendance is a clear strength. The school's chronic absenteeism was 11.2% in 2024–25, below the district's 18.4% and the state's 17.3%, and lower than its PK–2 feeders West Side Elementary (16.9%) and Pineview Elementary (12.6%). It also compared well with East Elementary (14.4%) and Al Behrman Elementary (16.6%), though Spring Hill Elementary (6.3%), Weston Elementary (7.1%), and North Freedom Elementary (8.7%) had lower rates. About 49.7% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–25, moderate-to-high but lower than West Side Elementary, Weston Elementary, Spring Hill Elementary, and Lake Delton Elementary. Spending per student was $15,337—mid-range—but the student-teacher ratio of 13.2 was the highest among nearby schools.

Compared with nearby schools, Prairie Ridge Intermediate is middle of the pack: Willson Elementary (63rd percentile) and East Elementary (52nd) rank higher, Spring Hill Elementary (50th) is similar, and North Freedom Elementary (45th), Lake Delton Elementary (46th), Weston Elementary (31st), and Al Behrman Elementary (29th) rank lower. Its overall 49th percentile also masks uneven subgroup results: English-language learners, low-income students, and students receiving special education services rank above the school's overall percentile, suggesting effective practices for several groups. One caveat: West Side Elementary and Pineview Elementary serve PK–2, so their test scores are not directly comparable to the school's grades 3–5 results. Overall, the school shows real strengths in math, science, and attendance, with ELA and 5th grade as areas to watch.
