Summary:
Zip code 53020 is served by a single elementary school, Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah Elementary, a PK–4 school with 359 students in the Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah School District, which ranks 17th of 432 Wisconsin districts (96th percentile, 5 stars) in this lakeside community.
The school has earned 5 stars in each of the last three reported years, ranking between the top 2% and top 8% of ranked Wisconsin schools. Test proficiency is strong across nearly every subject. In 2025–2026, 3rd grade English language arts was 84.78% and 4th grade ELA 87.10% — each roughly 33 points above the state average — and 3rd grade math reached 82.61%, up from 76.92% the prior year. Fourth grade science (77.42%) and social studies (80.65%) also sit well above state. The one soft spot is 4th grade math, at 58.06% — still above the state's 52.87%, but only by about 5 points, and far below the 78.57% that grade level posted the year before. That single result is worth watching. Note that 2024–2025 records include grades 5–8, where every reported ELA and math score exceeded 76.9%, though those figures may reflect district-level or feeder-school reporting.
Attendance and climate measures are exceptional: chronic absenteeism was 1.8%, compared with 2.1% district and 17.3% state, and the dropout rate was 0.0% versus 1.1% statewide. Class sizes are moderate at a 14:1 student-teacher ratio, with per-student spending of $12,729 and a 21.17% free/reduced lunch rate. Overall, families here would find a small, consistently high-performing school with broad strengths in reading, science, and attendance — with 4th grade math as the main item to monitor.
