Schools in Zip Code 53952

ZIP code 53952 covers Oxford, Wisconsin, and contains just one public school: Oxford Elementary, an elementary school serving grades PK–5 in the Westfield School District. It enrolls 128 students, with a student-teacher ratio of 11.6, per-student spending of $13,852, and a free/reduced lunch rate of 43.75%. Because there is only one school here, there is no other local school to compare it against, so the useful comparisons are with its own district and with the state.

The clearest strength is attendance. Oxford Elementary’s chronic absenteeism rate is 8.2%, far below the district’s 17.0% and the state’s 17.3% — less than half of either. The school is also moving up in statewide rankings: from 758 of 1,061 (29th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024, to 707 of 1,044 (32nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025, to 584 of 1,039 (44th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026. That outpaces the Westfield School District, which ranks 327 of 432 districts at the 24th percentile with 1 star. Subject-level results show real bright spots: 4th grade science was 60% proficient and 4th grade social studies 73.33% in 2025–2026, both above district and state, and 5th grade math jumped from 38.89% to 65%, now above both.

The main concern is early math. Third grade math proficiency is 23.08% in 2025–2026, well below the district’s 53.33% and the state’s 54.75%, and down from 37.5% the year before. Across all listed tests, the school’s simple average proficiency rose from 45.77% to 51.23% while the district’s fell, narrowing Oxford’s gap to the state to about 3.51 points — but it still trails the state’s 54.75%. With only 128 students, individual grade results can swing sharply from one or two students, so year-to-year changes should be read with caution.
