Summary:
ZIP code 54129 is home to a single elementary school: Hilbert Elementary in Hilbert, Wisconsin, which serves grades PK–4 with 177 students and belongs to the Hilbert School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, there are no side-by-side comparisons with neighboring schools; the most useful benchmarks are how it performs against its own district and against Wisconsin averages.
Hilbert Elementary has earned a 4-star rating in each of the last three school years and has stayed in the top quartile of Wisconsin elementary schools, ranking 197th of 1,061 in 2023–24, 133rd of 1,044 in 2024–25, and 258th of 1,039 in 2025–26. Its test scores beat the state average in every reported subject and grade in both 2024–25 and 2025–26. Math is a particular strength: 3rd grade math reached 85.29% proficiency in 2025–26 versus 54.75% statewide, and 4th grade math hit 83.33% in 2024–25 versus 53.96% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is also strikingly low at 4.8%, compared with 6.8% in the district and 17.3% across Wisconsin.
Two things are worth keeping in mind. First, the school's 4-star record is stronger than the district's overall 3-star rating at the 50th percentile, though the district's elementary test scores are identical to the school's, so that gap likely reflects other grade levels or district-wide factors. Second, with only 177 students, grade-level groups are small, so year-to-year swings — such as the 2025–26 declines in 4th grade math, social studies, and science — can be noisy and may involve different groups of students rather than the same children losing ground. Overall, families will find a consistently above-state performer with unusually strong attendance.
