Summary

Yorkville Elementary is a PK–8 school in Union Grove, Wisconsin, serving 465 students as the only school in the Yorkville J2 School District. It is mid-sized among nearby schools — larger than most surrounding PK–8 schools but smaller than Union Grove Elementary (886 students) and Gifford School (1,331). The school's profile is strong and improving: its district ranks 35th of 432 in Wisconsin (92nd percentile), and the school itself ranked 110th of 1,039 in 2025–26, putting it in the top 11% statewide. That continues an upward trend from 74th percentile in 2023–24 and 81st in 2024–25. Among nearby schools, only Kansasville Elementary ranks higher, and that school is much smaller.

Math is Yorkville's standout strength. In 2025–26, every reported grade-level math result beat the state average, and grades 6, 7 and 8 all landed between roughly 84% and 88% proficient. Its 6th- and 8th-grade math were the highest among comparable nearby schools, and 7th grade trailed only Kansasville Elementary, where the class is very small. ELA is solid, with every grade above the state average, though a few nearby schools post higher results in specific grades. Social studies is excellent (90% in 4th grade, 81% in 8th), and 4th-grade science (77.5%) leads the nearby group. The exception is 8th-grade science at 60.34%, still above the state but behind several neighbors, including Raymond Elementary and Paris Elementary.

Operationally, Yorkville reports 9.7% chronic absenteeism, well below the state's 17.3%, and a 0.8% dropout rate. Its free/reduced lunch rate (25.38%) and spending ($14,431 per student) are mid-range locally. Notably, Yorkville outranks nearby schools that spend more, suggesting strong academic efficiency. Its low-income students rank in the 95th percentile statewide, a clear bright spot. Special education is the main area to watch: that subgroup fell to the 41st percentile in 2024–25 after a 96th-percentile showing the year before, though small-group rankings can swing widely. Compared with the larger Union Grove Elementary, Yorkville ranks higher, posts stronger math in most grades, and spends more per student.
