Summary:
ZIP code 53074 is home to two elementary schools — Dunwiddie Elementary and Lincoln Elementary — both serving grades PK–4 as part of the Port Washington-Saukville School District, with a combined enrollment of 626 students. The district itself ranks 51st of 432 Wisconsin districts, at the 88th percentile with 4 stars, so families here are choosing between two schools that both perform above the state average.
Dunwiddie Elementary is the academic standout. It ranks 74th of 1,039 elementary schools statewide in 2025–2026 — the 93rd percentile, with 5 stars — after earning 5 stars the prior year too. Its strongest results are in math, science, and social studies, including 88.14% proficiency in 4th grade social studies, the highest single figure between the two schools. Dunwiddie outperforms the district in 5 of 6 reported subject areas and has 7.7% chronic absenteeism, below the district's 9.6% and the state's 17.3%. Notably, it posts stronger overall results despite a higher free/reduced lunch rate of 32.72% and a larger share of students needing support.
Lincoln Elementary stands out for attendance: its 4.5% chronic absenteeism is the lowest of the two, far below the district's 9.6% and roughly one-quarter of the state's 17.3%. It has a lower free/reduced lunch rate of 20.86% and slightly lower per-student spending of $14,543. Lincoln remains above the state in every reported 2025–2026 test area, but it has trended down in rank — from 82nd in 2023–2024 to 198th in 2025–2026 — and its relative 2025–2026 strength is ELA, where it slightly edges Dunwiddie in both 3rd and 4th grade. Overall, Dunwiddie is the academic powerhouse, while Lincoln is the attendance leader.
