Summary

Summit View Elementary is a public magnet elementary school in Waukesha, Wisconsin, serving grades PK-5 with an enrollment of around 450 students. This school consistently performs above the Waukesha School District and Wisconsin state averages on the Forward Exam, with strong academic achievement across various grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, 69.84% of 3rd graders, 70.67% of 4th graders, and 62.86% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district averages of 60.84%, 62.18%, and 58.58%, respectively.

Summit View Elementary also excels in the performance of specific student subgroups, ranking 5th out of 144 Wisconsin elementary schools for African American students and 37th out of 322 for Hispanic students in English Language Arts in 2024-2025. The school's exceptional performance for special education students, ranking 38th out of 802 Wisconsin elementary schools in 2024-2025, is another notable achievement. This consistent high performance has earned Summit View Elementary a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, placing it in the top 15-20% of Wisconsin elementary schools.

While Summit View Elementary outperforms many of its peers in the Waukesha School District, schools like Meadowbrook Elementary and Waukesha STEM Academy also demonstrate strong academic performance and high rankings, indicating a high level of educational quality within the district. However, the recent increase in chronic absenteeism at Summit View Elementary, from 8.6% in 2022-2023 to 17.7% in 2023-2024, is an area of concern that the school and district should address to ensure continued student success.
