ZIP code 53576 contains one elementary school: Parkview Elementary, serving grades PK–5 with 428 students in Orfordville, Wisconsin, as part of Parkview School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, parents should compare its performance to the district, the state, and its own prior years rather than to other local schools.
Parkview Elementary’s strongest academic signal is math. In 2025–2026, math proficiency was above the state in every tested grade: grade 3 at 67.27% vs. 54.75%, grade 4 at 60.71% vs. 52.87%, and grade 5 at 66.18% vs. 51.81%. Science and social studies also performed above the state, with grade 4 science at 58.93% vs. 53.46% and social studies at 69.64% vs. 65.51%. Chronic absenteeism is notably low at 10.3%, below the district’s 11.0% and well below the state’s 17.3%. The main watch area is English language arts (ELA): in 2025–2026, all three ELA grades were below the state—grade 3 at 47.27% vs. 52.08%, grade 4 at 41.07% vs. 53.87%, and grade 5 at 50.00% vs. 53.63%. Grade 5 ELA dropped sharply from 62.69% the prior year.
Parkview Elementary remains above the statewide median in ranking but has slipped from the 76th percentile and 4 stars in 2023–2024 to the 58th percentile and 3 stars in 2024–2025, then to the 54th percentile and 3 stars in 2025–2026. The district overall ranks lower, at 274 of 432 (37th percentile, 2 stars). Other context: 36.68% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending is $12,167, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.9. Overall, parents can see a school with clear strengths in math, science, social studies, and attendance, but one that should focus on improving ELA outcomes, especially in grades 4 and 5.
