Summary

Whitehall Memorial Elementary is a PK–5 school in Whitehall, WI, serving 439 students and standing as one of the larger elementaries in its nearby comparison group.

In 2025–2026, Whitehall Memorial Elementary ranked 700th of 1,039 Wisconsin elementary schools (33rd percentile, 2 stars), above its district—Whitehall School District, which ranks 370th of 432 (14th percentile)—but below most nearby schools. Math is the clearest weakness: all tested grades 3–5 are below state averages, and grade 3 math (32.14%) is lower than every nearby school with reported data, including Arcadia Elementary (36.26%) and Blair-Taylor Elementary (48.98%). Grade 5 math (37.04%) also trails Galesville Elementary, Osseo-Fairchild Elementary, Ettrick Elementary, Eleva-Strum Elementary, Blair-Taylor Elementary, and Independence Elementary. Grade 5 ELA is a bright spot at 62.96%, above the state and most nearby schools except Ettrick Elementary (75%).

Chronic absenteeism rose from 7.3% in 2023–2024 to 12.6% in 2024–2025. That is below Wisconsin’s 17.3% but above Whitehall School District’s 7.7% and second-highest among nearby schools, behind Independence Elementary (16.7%). The school spends $14,871 per student, less than most nearby schools, with a student–teacher ratio of 13.0, higher than most peers. About 50.57% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch. Subgroup results show sharp swings: English Language Learner students fell from the 89th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 2nd percentile in 2025–2026, and low-income students remain below the state median. Overall, the school is mid-to-lower performing locally: stronger than Independence Elementary and Arcadia Elementary and above its district average, but behind Gilmanton Elementary, Galesville Elementary, Osseo-Fairchild Elementary, Eleva-Strum Elementary, and Blair-Taylor Elementary.
