Summary

Mitchell Elementary is a PK–5 school in West Allis, Wisconsin, serving 267 students as part of the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District. Although that district ranks near the bottom of Wisconsin districts (400th of 432, 0 stars), Mitchell itself performed near the state middle in 2025–2026, ranking 505th of 1,039 elementary schools — the 51st percentile with 3 stars, and the only nearby school in this comparison to earn 3 stars.

Test scores are the clearest bright spot. Math is Mitchell's strongest subject: all three tested grades beat the state, with 4th grade (66.67%) and 5th grade (65.52%) roughly 14 points above state and 25–31 points above district. Fourth and fifth grade English/language arts also exceed state, while 3rd grade ELA falls slightly below state, though still well above district. Science and social studies lagged state in the latest year, but both were above state in 2023–2024, so these subjects look inconsistent rather than consistently weak. Compared with nearby schools such as Wilson Elementary, Hoover Elementary, Jefferson Elementary, and Franklin Elementary, Mitchell's math results stand out substantially.

Two other factors stand out. Mitchell's chronic absenteeism was just 3.9% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 19.5%, the state's 17.3%, and every nearby school (9.7%–16.4% in-district, 15.2%–39.7% in Milwaukee). Its free/reduced lunch rate of 44.19% is also lower than all nearby schools, which range from about 56% to 77%. Parents should note some watch points: special education subgroup effectiveness fell to the 23rd percentile (1 star) in 2025–2026 from higher levels in prior years, and 3rd grade ELA and 4th grade science/social studies trail state averages. Mitchell has also recovered markedly since 2020–2021, when it ranked at the 24th percentile with 1 star.
