Summary:

ZIP code 53039 in Juneau, Wisconsin is served by exactly one elementary school, Dodgeland Elementary, a PK–5 school with 315 students in the Dodgeland School District.

Because it is the only elementary school in the area, there is no local comparison to make, but the broader picture matters. The school's state ranking has slipped for two straight years, from 479th of 1,061 (55th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–2024, to 638th of 1,044 (39th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025, to 753rd of 1,039 (28th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026. The Dodgeland School District itself ranks 349th of 432 districts, in the 19th percentile with 1 star. Current-year test results are uneven by grade: in 2025–2026, grades 3 and 5 performed essentially at the state level in both English language arts and math, while grade 4 lagged far behind in every subject tested — ELA 29.79% versus 53.87% statewide, math 40.43% versus 52.87%, social studies 38.30% versus 65.51%, and science 31.91% versus 53.46%. Following the same group of students over time shows this current 4th grade cohort is the main pressure point: their ELA improved from 20.00% as 3rd graders to 29.79% as 4th graders, but their math slipped from 46.67% to 40.43%. The current 5th graders, by contrast, scored above state in grade 4 ELA, math, and social studies in 2024–2025 and remain near state in grade 5 ELA and math.

One clear strength is attendance: chronic absenteeism in 2024–2025 was 11.1% at the school, well below the district's 17.6% and the state's 17.3%, a notable result given that 56.51% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school spends $15,086 per student with a 12.6:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025, though the data offers no state or district benchmark for those two figures, so it is not possible to say whether they are high, low, or typical. Overall, families should weigh the school's low absenteeism and near-state results in several grades against its declining rank trend and the significant struggles of the current 4th grade class.
