Summary:
ZIP code 54129 is served by a single district — Hilbert School District — which educates 481 students across three schools sharing one campus on W Milwaukee St: Hilbert Elementary (PK–4, 177 students), Hilbert Middle (5–8, 147 students), and Hilbert High (9–12, 157 students). Enrollment is split unusually evenly across the three levels, so no single building dominates the district.
Hilbert Elementary is the clear standout: it has ranked in the top quartile statewide for three straight years (75th, 87th, and 81st percentile, with 4 stars each year) and in 2025–26 beat the state on all six tested measures, by margins from +4.9 points in 4th grade Social Studies to +30.5 points in 3rd grade Math. Its chronic absenteeism of 4.8% is under a third of the state's 17.3%. Hilbert Middle is more volatile — its statewide rank swung from 60th to 49th to 81st percentile — but math is steady and strong, above state in all four grades in both years by +8 to +25 points. It also reports a 0.0% dropout rate and 6.0% chronic absenteeism.
Hilbert High is the district's relative weak point, with a declining rank (58th → 29th → 34th percentile) and 2025–26 ACT results below state in all three subjects: ELA −11.3 points, Math −8.8, and Science at just 23.26% versus the state's 43.2% — the largest gap in this data. The counterweights are real: a 100% graduation rate (state: 92%), 9.4% chronic absenteeism, the district's highest per-pupil spending ($15,582), and its smallest classes (11.2 students per teacher). Across the district, absenteeism rises with grade level but every school beats the state rate, and with testing cohorts of roughly 25–45 students, small year-to-year swings should be read as directional signals rather than precise measurements.
