Summary

Eisenhower Elementary is a PK–5 school in the Wauwatosa School District in Wauwatosa, WI — a suburban community just west of Milwaukee — serving 373 students. Its district ranks 142 of 432 districts in Wisconsin (67th percentile, 3 stars). The school's own statewide rank has been mid-to-lower tier for years, but 2025–2026 marks a sharp decline: Eisenhower Elementary fell from 51st percentile and 3 stars in 2024–2025 to 28th percentile and 1 star, landing in the bottom third of Wisconsin elementary schools.

In the 2025–2026 state test results, Eisenhower scored below both its district and the state in every listed subject and grade. Fourth grade is the clearest weak spot: ELA 38.10, math 33.33, science 39.68, and social studies 58.73, with 4th grade gaps versus the district larger than 23 points in ELA and math. Math and science are generally weaker than ELA. Chronic absenteeism was 14.2% in 2024–2025 — below Wisconsin's 17.3% but above the district's 12.6%, and much higher than at nearby high-performing schools. About 34.32% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch, up from 27.54% in 2022–2023 and above the district average.

Within Wauwatosa, Eisenhower sits in the lower tier: Madison Elementary (23rd percentile) and Underwood Elementary (33rd) are closest in rank, while McKinley Elementary (86th) and Wauwatosa Montessori School (87th) rank far higher. Neighboring schools in the Elmbrook School District — Tonawanda Elementary (98th) and Dixon Elementary (95th) — are among the state's strongest. Eisenhower still far outperforms nearby Milwaukee School District schools such as Emerson Elementary, Ninety-Fifth Street Elementary, and Eighty-First Street Elementary. Resources look adequate — a student-teacher ratio of 11.2 and $15,510 per student — suggesting staffing alone does not explain the gap. Results vary widely by student group; low-income students ranked in the 8th percentile with 0 stars, the school's most urgent area alongside 4th grade instruction, math and science, and attendance.
