Summary:
ZIP code 53015 (Cleveland, Wisconsin) contains one elementary school in this data set — Cleveland Elementary, a PK–5 building with 117 students in the Sheboygan Area School District — so families here are looking at a single neighborhood school rather than choosing among several.
Cleveland Elementary's strongest results come from fourth grade, which beat state proficiency rates in all four subjects tested in 2025-26: math 73.33% (state 52.87%), social studies 73.33% (state 65.51%), ELA 66.67% (state 53.87%), and science 60% (state 53.46%). Attendance is another bright spot — chronic absenteeism of 15.7% is better than both the district's 21.5% and the state's 17.3%. The school also posted its best ranking in three years, moving from 813 of 1,044 (1 star) to 655 of 1,039 (37th percentile, 2 stars).
The gaps sit in grades 3 and 5, where ELA and math results trail the state by double digits — grade 5 math at 33.33%, for instance, versus the state's 51.81%. Parents should read those swings carefully: with roughly 15–23 students tested per grade, one student can shift a grade-level result by 4–7 percentage points, and both groups of students followed from one year to the next actually improved. The school spends $17,306 per student with a 12:1 student-teacher ratio and a 58.12% free/reduced-lunch rate, and even in its best year it ranks below the median Wisconsin school — so its progress is measured against its own district and its own history, not the state overall.
