Summary:
ZIP code 53550 is served by a single public elementary school: Juda Elementary, part of the Juda School District in Wisconsin. It enrolls 178 students in grades PK–8, so children in the area attend one school for both elementary and middle school years. The district as a whole is ranked 269 of 432 in Wisconsin, placing it in the 38th percentile with 2 stars, while Juda Elementary has earned 3 stars in each of the last three listed school years.
English Language Arts is the clearest academic strength. Sixth grade ELA was about 20 percentage points above the state in both 2025–2026 (75%) and 2024–2025 (73.68%), and third grade ELA was 12.21 points above the state in 2025–2026. Math results are more mixed: fifth grade math reached 87.5% in 2024–2025, 34.92 points above the state and the highest test result in the data, and third grade math hit 71.43% in 2025–2026, 16.68 points above the state. However, fourth, sixth, and eighth grade math fell below state averages in 2025–2026. Across both years, fourth grade social studies and science were consistently above the state, while eighth grade social studies and science were below it, suggesting a middle-school transition weakness in those subjects.
Engagement and school climate indicators are strong. Chronic absenteeism is 7.5%, below the district’s 8.9% and less than half the statewide 17.3%, and the dropout rate is 0.0% for both the school and district, compared with 1.1% statewide. About 53.37% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $16,361, and the student-teacher ratio is 10.9, which is relatively low and points to more individualized attention. One caveat: the school’s rank slipped from the 70th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 55th percentile in 2025–2026, though it remains above the state median with 3 stars. With only 178 students in PK–8, grade-level cohorts are small, so year-to-year percentage swings should be read cautiously.
