Summary

Glacier Edge Elementary is a K–5 school serving 462 students in Verona, Wisconsin, part of the Verona Area School District, a district ranked 95th of 432 in Wisconsin (78th percentile, 4 stars). The school itself currently sits well below that district profile: in 2025–2026 it ranked 555th of 1,039 elementary schools statewide (47th percentile, 2 stars), down from 4 stars and the 75th–78th percentile in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023.

Academically, results are close to state averages but below district averages: averaging the reported grades, ELA is about 54.6% proficient (district about 62.9%, state about 53.2%) and math about 55.2% (district about 61.1%, state about 53.1%). Third-grade math is the bright spot at 62.16%, above both district and state, while 4th-grade ELA (53.09%) and 4th-grade math (50.00%) fall below both. Fourth-grade science is the clearest red flag at 46.34% — below the district (58.11%) and state (53.46%), below every nearby Verona Area peer, and down from 60.00% in 2022–2023. Attendance is a strength: chronic absenteeism was 9.3% in 2024–2025, better than the district (15.4%) and state (17.3%).

Among nearby Verona Area schools, Glacier Edge Elementary has the weakest overall rank — behind Stoner Prairie Elementary (298th, 4 stars), New Century School, Verona Area International School, Core Knowledge Charter School, Sugar Creek Elementary, and Country View Elementary. The Stoner Prairie comparison stands out: a similar poverty rate (29.24% vs 32.03%), nearly identical spending ($18,792 vs $18,700) and student-teacher ratio, yet much stronger results. Core Knowledge spends less ($15,398) with a higher ratio (18.1:1) and still ranks 210th. Glacier Edge does outrank nearby Madison schools, including Huegel Elementary, Cesar Chavez Elementary, Orchard Ridge Elementary, and Milele Chikasa Anana Elementary School. Effectiveness for low-income students remains very low (10th percentile, 1 star), though English learner and special education effectiveness have improved.
