Summary

Cleveland Elementary is a small PK–5 school in Cleveland, WI, serving 117 students as part of the Sheboygan Area School District; it is the smallest school in its nearby comparison group, with roughly 20 students per grade, so year-to-year results can be volatile. Its most recent state ranking is 655th out of 1,039 schools (37th percentile, 2 stars) for 2025–2026, up from 22nd percentile (1 star) in 2024–2025 but below 76th percentile (4 stars) in 2020–2021 and 82nd percentile (4 stars) in 2015–2016.

Test results are split by grade. The 2025–2026 4th grade scored above district and state averages in ELA, math, social studies, and science, with 66.67% in ELA, 73.33% in math, 73.33% in social studies, and 60% in science. Third and 5th grades scored below district and state averages in every tested subject. Chronic absenteeism was 15.7% in 2024–2025, below district and state averages but up from 7.8% the prior year. The free/reduced lunch rate rose to 58.12% in 2024–2025, up from 31.82% in 2022–2023. Cleveland spends $17,306 per student and has a student–teacher ratio of 12, yet its overall results trail some nearby schools that spend less and have larger classes, including Lincoln-Erdman Elementary and Etude Elementary, both in the 73rd percentile (4 stars), and Lake Country Academy - Charter (60th percentile). Cleveland does outperform Sheboygan Leadership Academy (19th percentile), Cooper Elementary (15th), Jefferson Elementary (11th), Pigeon River Elementary (28th), and Monroe Elementary (12th).

Student-group results show persistent gaps. Low-income students rank in the 21st percentile (1 star) in 2025–2026, 14th (1 star) in 2024–2025, and 13th (1 star) in 2023–2024. Female students rank 29th percentile (1 star), while male students rank 48th percentile (2 stars). English language learners rank 44th percentile and special education students rank 40th percentile (both 2 stars). The district overall ranks in the 21st percentile, so Cleveland is above the district average but below the state median. Parents should know that the school’s small size makes single-year data cautious, but the strong 4th grade and relatively low absenteeism are bright spots; addressing the low-income and gender gaps will be key.
