Summary:

ZIP code 54023 contains one elementary school — Saint Croix Central Elementary in Roberts, Wisconsin, serving grades PK–4 with 629 students as part of the Saint Croix Central School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, there are no local peer schools to compare it against; the useful comparisons are to its own district and to the state of Wisconsin.

The school has earned 4 stars in each of the last three reported years, ranking 286 of 1039 schools (72nd percentile) in 2025–2026, 311 of 1044 (70th percentile) in 2024–2025, and 246 of 1061 (77th percentile) in 2023–2024. That 4-star profile is stronger than its district's 3-star rating and 53rd percentile rank. On the Forward Exam in 2025–2026, the school scored above the state in every reported subject and grade, with the largest margins in 4th grade Science (70.59% proficient vs. 53.46% state) and 4th grade Social Studies (78.15% vs. 65.51%). Its narrowest margin was 3rd grade ELA at 54.21% vs. 52.08%. Averaged across the six reported tests, the school's proficiency was about 66.55%, roughly 11 points above the state and only marginally above the district.

Chronic absenteeism is a clear bright spot at 7.8% in 2024–2025, below the district's 10.3% and well below the state's 17.3%. Mathematics improved year over year — 3rd grade Math rose 5.57 points to 63.55% and 4th grade Math rose 3.01 points to 67.23% — while ELA stayed essentially flat and 4th grade Social Studies slipped 3.50 points to 78.15%, still among its strongest results. About 23.21% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $14,738, and the student-teacher ratio is 13:1. Overall, this is a stable, high-performing elementary school with notable science and social studies results and low absenteeism.
