Summary:

ZIP code 54201 is home to a single elementary school, Algoma Elementary, which serves grades PK–6 with 301 students as part of the Algoma School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, it is the entire elementary picture here, and its test-score results are identical to the district's for every listed grade and subject.

Algoma Elementary's clearest strengths are attendance and class size. Chronic absenteeism was 7.7% in 2024–25 — well under the district's 11.4% and less than half Wisconsin's 17.3% — and the student-teacher ratio was a low 9.1 students per teacher. Fourth graders posted standout 2025–26 results in social studies (79.55% proficient versus 65.51% statewide) and science (63.64% versus 53.46%). Third and fourth grade English language arts also beat the state averages, and sixth grade ELA rose sharply from 31.11% to 55%. The school's rank improved from the 32nd percentile in 2023–24 to the 49th percentile in 2025–26, moving up 189 positions.

Math is the main concern: every tested grade fell below the state average in 2025–26, with fifth grade math the weakest at 37.14% proficient versus 51.81% statewide, a 14.67-point gap. Fifth grade ELA was also below state at 48.57% versus 53.63%. The district overall ranks 378th of 432 Wisconsin districts, at the 12th percentile with 1 star, even though the school's own rank history is stronger. With one school and small grade-level cohorts, year-to-year swings can reflect just a few students.
